S65 Replica Wheels

I have seen several 2006 S65 replica wheels but none of them have the 65 series offset. Has anyone seen cheap replica wheels for 65 series cars? I am trying to find a set to mount some sticky rear tires.

I used the AMG 18" monoblocks with Mickey Thompson ET Drag Radials for the strip.

Did you use the 8.5's or 9.5's? Which offset?

I have a one year old set of brabus monoblock replicas (19 x9.5) that were on my s65 for winter that I'm looking to sell. right now they have snow tires on them (3000 miles) and mercedes tpms installed. Looking to get $1500 + shipping for the set, but I can have the tires removed and I would sell just the rims for $1000 if you are interested PM me - Thanks

I just used the Factory 18x9 wheels with MT 265/40/18.. They are heavy though. Spare tire rims are light, may look at at set of those for your stickies.

Good thought. My spare looks just like the wheel above. I sure hope some 19 inch drag radials get released soon I sure would like to use them with stock rims.

Mickey Thompson is supposed to have 305/35/19 drag radials out soon, the thing is that they suggest a rim of 10-12 inches with our stock rears only being 9.5"

I wonder if it can work, if its just not recommended, or the risk of breaking the bead is very likely. This would be a cool set up on stock wheels but may require spacers and/or keeping the suspension raised to avoid rubbing. these are wider and slightly taller than stock. and the proven success of the 265/40/18s.

That is geat! I figure with the new Boss Mustang comming out with 19 inch wheels several different drag radials in our size will soon follow.
