I think those are AMG replicas made by TSW. I think the model name is Bremma.

My MB store took them from US. I think you can find them on e-bay. The quality is good and no popblem so far (10000 km). Now the cat is loweted t
+ 10 mm spacers rear. I dont think is TSW so it could be a copy of copy

Wow! 20inches. I like . Anders, u said your MB store bought them from the U.S. ?
Or did u buy them from the website u posted. Can u tell me if u have rubbing problems on your car (does the rim hit the underside of fender)?
And it looks like a 1 piece rim. Or is it a 2 piece? Thanks for replying.

Steve, thanks for the heads up. Will check to see if TSW carries them as well. cheers

thank you for sharing. Will be ordering them for my car. Then it can look exactly like yours!

By the way, what size tires are you running on your 20s? front and rear

245/35x20 285/30x20 Michelin PS2. The ride is perfect!! Much better than Bridgestone Potenza 19" I had before. I know it makes the wheels a little to big but it works well and gives me better comfort than 25 profile rear.

Judging from your pictures, yes, it looks perfect too. However, the company that sells them in the U.S. doesnt have 9inch and 10 inch widths anymore. Sold out. Only left with 8.5 and 9.5 inch widths.
I think I will go with 245/35 and 275/30 tires. Only way I can think of to try and maintain the same diameter. Again, the rear is a bit larger than stock but there arent any other sizes here.
Great looking pictures of your car once again. Cheers!

SL55 on tour...

Here's a couple of shots of my bug-spattered, camera-laden SL55 getting out and about in central Spain. Shiny clean cars are all very well, but using them instead of polishing them is a lot more fun!

Same mountain, two Lotuses and a Westfield -

Looks a fun drive Nubbin - Out of those 4 I bet I know who was most comfortable on the trip!

Spain's a great place to strech the legs of thos cars, with superb roads and weather.
