Well - They are on the S65, but they are not "the S65 wheels". It definetly does not come with the car, i know that for sure. Im sure you can order them from Mercedes or from AMG Germany, but i have NEVER seen them before in any picture (and believe me, im always looking at cars!! hehe)
ANYONE know what they are? or where i can find a price? I mean - really...those are seriously the nicest looking wheels ever.

The S65 Wheel is the 20" seen in the pic here.

It looks like the Style IV multipiece rim. They're 19". The IV is a titanium grey finish. They also look like the Style VI, which the a sterling silver finish version.

You can see them at mercedes-amg.com, then look under showroom, then accessories.

Both look very nice, but they're a little on the small side being 19".

You are right. They are 19" Style IV with Titanium finish. Why would they make them as 19" and put them on an S65 which comes with a 20" wheel?

They really should make those as 20"s.... somoene like me, would NOT upgrade to those, as I already have 19s on my car - and would not upgrade to another 19" size.... would upgrade if those came in 20s........

Would get those in the 20s if they make them. I imagine they would be $1500 for each wheel. Look at all that detail! $6000 for a set of wheels from AMG.... heh. wow.

300C is a little faster because it's lighter. But don't forget driver reaction time and how you set up ESP, suspension, gear change speeds, etc.

Practice your reaction times!!

300C, look for it here:

Does he have the 5.7 hemi version?

Hi
Yes - I think he does have the 5.7 Hemi - i think thats the only one - unless u mean whether he has the SRT version which is 400+ BHP.

I am looking at those sites - and it shows the S550 is faster in the 1/4 mile ,and the 0-60.....

his is the 340bhp V8 Hemi.

So he is gonna beat me when we go? Thats embarassing - considering i have 48 more horses and more torque!!!! I wanna see how much his weighs.

Those rims are nice....they are on european model. Maybe they are 19" because it will give a softer ride, or maybe they are a lot lighter to increase the performance for the S65 AMG?

Trust me none of the AMG wheels are light.
