2005 SL55 - Need 19" AMG wheels

I am new here. HI ALL !

...and I have the 18" turbines on my Black 2005 SL55. I want to update the look from a wheels perspective. I was hoping to get a set of replacement AMG rims but with the offset being lin the ow 30's I am struggling with even finding AMG rims that will fit. I am sure I can't be the 1st with this problem. What is the solution for getting more contemporary 19" AMG rims on my car please ?

In an ideal world however I would want to get 19" versions of the turbines or some black mesh type staggered wheels with subtle polished lip.

Thanks

I think all of the r230 wheels fit. But if you are putting money in it, I would buy a newer style aftermarket wheel. Theres plenty out there. And it should be easy to find better size and offsets already designed for the car.
Done buy a cast wheel, look at forged or flow forged

Nice, but I am in the UK so shipping will add too much to the price.
