We got these rims off ebay --

cheap Chinese knockoffs. That said, the dealer said these were the best aftermarket wheels they've seen in a long time, but were surprised at the "illegal" usage of the AMG stamp (which they did say was very well done).

I wanted to say with 19 inchers. The only issue the dealer had in installing them is that they had to go get longer lug bolts (which I knew, but forgot to tell them).

No, they don't need a hub ring. They come with the OEM specs (width, offset, center bore, etc)

I got similar wheels (from the same vendor) in 18 inches for my winter tires, and they fit right in, just like Mike's car.

to MikeDr: Looks great..

Thanks guys ..................now I have a set on Order for my GLK. I went to 'silver" ones as I have OB'Black outside.
I was looking @ getting a set of 4 from Tire Rack (BBS ones) and good thing I baulked due to the 'centering rings' and non-OEM off-sets was the major reason I was so glad to see OP!
Now the factory ones mostly be used for summer time.

Thanks guys
