New C207 Owner. NC

So here is the crazy thing, I've been a member for a little while but until recently didn't own a MB myself. I was doing research for my brother who has had Several MB and love them. So when I was recently looking for a replacement for my 2005 Cadillac STS, which was basically falling apart. So I bought a E400, So far I love it. I tinted the windows and changed the Wheels out.

When I first received her with Stock AMG Sport Wheels.

Aftermarket Wheels.

Aftermarket Wheels.

New wheels, I thought I had a nail in my tire since it would go flat overnight. Found out one of my AMG rims was bent and cracked. . Mercedes said they couldn't get that particular wheel anymore. So just bought a new set of wheels. What you guys think?

Nice E550! I have the same in Black...sadly, a few years older (2014). Did you happen to keep the factory AMG 18" rims? If so...want to sell them by chance? I have two bent rims thanks to our lovely potholes here in KY and have yet to find a shop to repair them. My family lives in GSO, so I'm nearby around the holidays...

Sorry for the delay, just now reading this, yes i still have the AMG wheels that came on my E400 and i have the Stock wheels that came on my E550. One of the AMG wheels is cracked and bent but they have brand new tires on them.
