*** How much can I sell my AMG rims and tires for?**

Im taking delivery of my SLK55 in 1 month, and Im looking to get HRE 19".
How much would you think my brand new 18" AMG multi spokes with expensive tires go for??

Thanks guys!

SLK 55 AMG
the rims alone I think you can sell them for over $2,000. If they are chromed add $800 to that. Go to the www.mbusa.com website and do the BUILD A MODEL thing and there are other AMG wheels that you can put on the car. It has the price of those rims, they aren't them same but they should give you an idea.

Go to the salesman and ask how much it would cost if you bought four 18 inch 16 spoke AMG wheels for the SLK 55 AMG, and then go to the service department and ask them about your tires. Usually the service department will tell you to go to any garage shop that is certified (obviously) and get the tires on your car. They will give you a number and brand name. Take that and go to a tire place and see what you get.

Maybe we can do a barter trade. You can sell me your AMG wheels and I can get a set of HRE for you, you just have to pay the difference. But I dont think your wheels can be sold for over USD2,000, unfortunately, anything that has been installed on a car cannot be considered new.

BUT, you might want to keep the stock wheels. You need them when you sell the car in the future.

Or if you live in a snowy area you could use the stock rims with snow tires

Make sure your new 19" wheels fit. I was told by the people who put my 19" Amistad wheels on that much research went into making sure they would fit over those oversize AMG brakes - I guess they stick out pretty far.
