yes, i like them so much. Maybe they are not the best looking wheels around. But i believe these wheels are the best fit for our R230 before facelift.

Yeah bro, those titanium SL65 wheels look perfect on your car, especially a black SL! Great choice!

I think the AMG 2-piece wheels are some of the best looking wheels around, so much that I removed my Brabus Monoblock S wheels from my SLK55 and put my stock Sterling Silver P30 18" wheels back on and purchased some Sterling Silver 19" with 10" wide rears for my SL55 to match my SLK55.

Thanks bro!

The AMG 2-piece wheels are heavy weighing in at 30+ lbs each, but they look so darn good for being stock wheels.

How many miles does your beast have?

HAHA. No wonder when I tried to clean my seats today they looked nothing like his. I only have 45k on mine but it is an 03....

Maybe I will have to 'wax on, wax off' a lot more.
