help with change wheels to 19"
I had s550 2008 with original 18" wheels, I would like to change to 19", should I get the Mercedes OEM wheels or the Replica generic? the price is so much different. The replica has more style and look beter too. Please give me some advices, Thank you so much!

I have had many,many aftermarket wheels with no problems. I wouldn't spend that much on oem wheels.IMO

Replica wheels crack easily, Thats a factor you should consider when purchasing wheels.. Btw i have a set of 19 inch AMG wheels for sale.

Not all aftermarket manufactures are the same. Some are actuarially as good as oem.
