Were you a native English speaker, you would know that asking someone to "proof your ad" is correct and accepted practice. I could have said "proofread" but wouldn't use that with a native English speaker.

While you can pick apart most internet posts for typos and missing words, the difference is that you continually use the wrong tense.

There is nothing wrong with not being a native English speaker and being bi-lingual is a huge plus (regardless of language) but you can make a for sale ad a lot more powerful if you get it proofread for grammar and spelling before you post it.

There you go again, letting me beat you on the head with my mallet.

You are doing a great job of killing your thread and reputation. Keep up the good work. I'm not sure that you'll find anyone here who wants what you have "for sell" [sic]. Especially if you keep posting.

You know, I'm quite fluent in German but I get thrown for a loop at times with capitalization. I know the rules but sometimes still get it wrong. I always appreciate it when a forum member in one of the German forums I frequent gives me advice. I don't get all pissy and go on a rant. "Pissy" is a colloquial term and is quite acceptable in informal settings like the internet.

Ya, his price is a bit high, who cares. Ya, no sensors...he never said they had sensors, people change them out all the time. Obvious, to me anyway, in the pics that there are no sensors, valve stem is black...again..who cares. Tire damage from changing them out? Cut it out..pleeze.....that probability is quite low.

I have my wheels, tires and sensors switched all the time: never had an issue with alignment, balance or any of the issue's mentioned.....not once.......
(4 sets of wheels from my E550, 3 for my CLS)
also: why sell the stock wheels OP? you obviously are not starving, I recommend holding on to them as you never know when you'll need some 'extra' wheels

Ok, I'm not the oddball. I had my first MB wheels replaced with 20" Vossen. Man I don't get it, my Vossen dealer ask if I want to get new TPMS when I put the new wheel on and I said no. Dealer said keep your TPMS cause buyers would have their own.

Man I honestly didn't get the feeling a guy with PMS would be on this forum.

Exactly! I don't get all of the attacks on the OP. If you think his wheels are overpriced don't buy them. No need to flame to OP here.

Sometimes people sell the OEM rims because they don't want their car to look like every other one of that car.
