Any recommendation for aftermarket brand for wheels/rims?

Hi,

I'm looking for new wheels to replace my current amg 18" wheels on E350 2013 and wondering if I can get some names of good wheel brands?

What’s your budget? $1,000, $5,000? Wheels can get very expensive quickly.
The marketplace on this site has several wheels listed with my favorite being these E63 AMG OEM wheels made by BBS for Mercedes.
They are heavy, but very strong.

Thank you. My budget is under $1100. I liked Mandrus wheels but I talked to their support and they said their wheels discontinued for 2013 and wondering if any other good brands I can look at? what others are using here.

I don't like those wheels that much, instead I really like few other series by Mandrus but those are not available. (

forged wheels are stronger than cast wheels. a lot of aftermarket wheels are just cheap cosmetic crap, soft cast wheels that bend or crack easily.

Used, oem can be pennies on the dollar. If you do not need them today.....a craigslist search for Mercedes wheels 18 is the way to go. Seemly every community has someone who has been storing wheels/rims in his or her garage without a car to put them on. By late fall, most get snapped up to mount snows tires.
I would watch the youtube vids related to the durability of aftermarket rims before you buy any.
