Gorgeous wheels. I think there is a fear of getting these wheels and then damaging one on our horrid streets beyond repair. Being out of production (I assume) would make the other 3 wheels paper weights. Those would be very expensive paperweights. I have purchased vintage wheels that cost as much as these new. Damaging a right front (yes they were mono forged Renntechs) wheel that was not repairable made the other three useless to me. Now, if someone put these on a car that is a garage queen and not daily driven, then I can see the appeal. Good Luck with the sale!

It is unfortunate that your Renntech wheels are useless to you, you must have really hit something very hard, but I am pretty sure that all Renntech wheels were done domestically for Hartmut, so I would see about checking with guys like COR, or Rennen to see if they still have a program for that design, or if they could even potentially reverse engineer one of your other wheels to make a replacement. I realize that is going to cost a bit more than what you originally paid per wheel, but I don't think anybody wants to go around and buy things for value to then just assume they are going to crash them into nothing. Also, I have handled many cases over the years with selling wheels from Brabus which were only cast wheels for their early multi pc wheels and many customers would just run it through their insurance.
Anyway, I am offering a really nice set of wheels at a fraction of their original cost, and at a real bargain from their original MSRP, which for some buyers it is very worthwhile, so thanks again for looking and I understand it is not for you, so no hard feelings.
Hope the lead with Rennen Forged or COR is helpful to maybe complete your Renntech's again.
Regards,
Jim

Price drop to $3K. Again these have never been mounted or used, or put on a vehicle for display etc. They are brand spanking new.
The asking price for these wheels compared to the New original price is well in line with the market for used Forged wheels, so these wheels at this price will maintain their value if they are well cared for based on the used wheel market.

I received some messages regarding the wheel weight and hardware, so attached are images of the front 20x9.5 wheel weight with the Carlsson Hardware kit, and the specs of the wheel and hardware kit from the Carlsson spec list from the German parts list. I also have the German TUV papers in a PDF for the application as well. The wheel weight is 25.2lbs, and with the hardware adapter plate the weight is 27.2lbs.

Here are the images for the rear wheel, 20x11.0, which requires only a hub ring and bolts, and the weight of the rear is 26.8lbs
Also attached is the specs from the Carlsson parts guide from Germany. I can email the PDF of the TUV approval for the application if needed.

Updated the original ad to reflect the price drop to $3k obo
I added detailed pics of the hardware and wheel weights of both the front and rear.
I see ads here for used wheels at this price, these wheels being new at this price with proper lug hardware will always remain at this value, these wheels may be for a specific application for the R230, C219, C218 63, but will keep their value at this price range vs spending the original $9k+ price tag.
These are a huge savings and a great value for what they are.

Thank you for your nice comments and interest. Here is the thing, I would never say to someone that a Tuner specific application can fit all, or shoot from the hip that it could work no problem.
My honest opinion is that they could possibly work with maybe playing with some of the hardware spacer kits, and perhaps some tire options? Since the car is a 63 it has the wider front fenders to accommodate the 9.5 fronts, but the 11.0 rears might be pretty tough. I honestly would rather not try to attempt it.
If you had a CLS63, that would be a slam dunk!

Looking at other forged wheels for sale here, these being brand new compared ones priced at that same amount that are used and banged up...that is a pretty good deal.

Thanks Scott, but I am not desperate to sell them. I am already taking a huge loss on these and $2,500 for the complete set with Carlsson hardware kits that account for another $350 bucks is a great buy! Since they are 100% brand new they are well worth that price. There are plenty of used, curbed wheels on here for $2k.

I am not sure about the application for a 2018 S63, I know Carlsson had squeezed the 11.0x20 on the C216, but the front would use a 8.5 vs the 9.5 that accommodate the complete set.
I think for the C217 the offsets might be too aggressive.
The best application for these are based on the R230, C219, C218AMG, and the R231.
Thank you for your compliment and interest.
