Possible to Special Order AMG rims with BT?

I've just ordered my ML BlueTec. I'd really like to get those AMG 20" wheels because the look just appeals to me. Is there a way to get these via special order? I'm getting the handling package with 20" rims anyway. It would seem easy to deselect the normal 20" wheels and use the AMGs for a fee.

Your help appreciated.

The offsets maybe different. If so the dealer will be loathe to mount them due to liability reasons. I don't have a current MB wheel catalog so I can't advise you further. Ask your parts dept.?

I’m assuming that you’re in the US as we get the 20” AMG wheels part of the sport package for $2500 here in Canada
I was surprised that the configuration for the ML’s are quit different In the US from Canada, even the wheels, packages etc…

You can only get AMG wheels in conjunction with AMG bodystyling. Since USA doesn't have the AMG cladding standard on the 350s (or available for that matter), you're out of luck.
