SLK55 Black Wheels

Can anyone here help me source these?

Black series 8.5x19
Black series 9.5x19


Maybe a resourceful person in Europe who would not mind shipping them to me...

Those look like stock 18's on '06 and forward...not sure on the 19's though. I know someone was trying to find a dealer earlier that sell "black" wheels, but no one would order them. You may try : http://www.mercedespartssuperstore.c...FQoaswodXBLcQQ

The get OEM and good pricing. Got my '09 antenna for about 60% of what the local dealers wanted for them.

SLK55BS had a very limited production run, I think only 200 units, it will be extremely hard to get them. I think you need a black series VIN number to order them from a dealer and then ship them from here from Europe. Probably not even worth the effort, just get the HRE's/Iforged, they will be lighter, cheaper, and look better. If you really want them, there is 1 SLK55BS owner on this forum, I would PM him.

Are they the same as the CLK63 Black Series wheels? If so, there seems to be a lot of CLK BS guys swapping the stock ones out with Dymags and HREs. Maybe someone will sell a set....

I really like the Carlsson U/L 16 or the Kleemann TS6 those are pretty light weight and forged, check them out.

thanks for all the feedback, at the end of the day I'm trying to stay true to AMG products but I also want some light weigh 19's like the BS. Word is the BS 19's weigh around 20 lbs which is about 4-5 lbs per wheel less than my stock AMG 55 18's.

I'll look into all the options you guys listed below. The CLK BS options sound interesting.
