FS: 2020 G550 8-spoke wheels 19"

Thanks to another forum member, my Iridium Silver 550 now has 20" black wheels. They look great, so I'm selling the original 8 spokes. They have Pirelli Scorpion tires as delivered, with almost exactly 5,000 miles on them. I'd like $2000 <<<EDIT, NOW $1500 AND CAN SHIP>>>. for them, with a catch: They must be picked up in Norfolk VA. I have too many ***** in the air at the moment to coordinate delivery, so this is local pickup only, sorry about that.

Sounds like a good deal to me! And I would love to see what the Black wheels look like on your G, which you must have received from a great forum member...wonder who it was?!

That is a real nice rack - too bad I do not have the garage clearance.

Can you picture his running boards blacked out?! I can and it would look real nice and as I was telling you Chris just the side/curved piece and lower one are enough. And it would look good on a White one as well!

Yup, once you commit on installing a roof rack you can forget about parking the G in the garage.. not unless you modify the height of your garage though...

LeTech Rack

This thread was about wheels LOL but in the interest of stamping out misconceptions; this is a LeTech rack from Germany. Viking sells them. It adds about 3 3/4" to height of vehicle. Plenty of room for home garages and so far, every parking garage I've tried.
LeTech Rack adds ~3.5" height

great looking roof rack. so it mounts straight onto the factory points ? havent seen what those mounting points look like under the covers. good to see that some one is making roof racks for the new Gs now.

Correct. You remove six plastic covers and the feet of the rack slot into the factory mounting points. Anchored with machine screws. See here for detail photos https://mbworld.org/forums/g-class-w...roof-rack.html

I've been PM'd about the tires: these are Pirelli P zeros, All Season. less than 5K miles so close to full tread.

Don't need them myself, but this is a great buy for anyone wanting a second set of wheels to mount snows or taller profile tires for off-roading. Before listing on ebay, check comparable prices for OE MB wheels & tires. Last time I checked other listings were for at least double your asking price.

Ha, yes, I know, not trying to get top dollar, just convey them to someone who can use them and free up the space. It's not working LOL!
