The 945 wont be available until next year. My assuming is based on the fact that the Competition series arent even out yet (which were debut at the SEMA show in Nov '03) and were supposed to be in production last summer.

I have the non-AMG versions (ASA ST4) and my front wheels get that color when I don't wash the car for a while and the brake dust collects.
Do you know whether I can get my wheels coated in that color?

The ones you saw were probable the TSW Bremma's (lookalikes).

Something on 4 wheels..
Are those grey wheels identical to those on the 030 AMG Performance Package for the CLS 55 or will those Performance-package wheels be in a one color-design (like current E55-wheels)?

actually...I was speaking about the 20's

as far as pricing...I actually just tried to call your number but got a voicemail...shoot me a pm and we'll talk.

Its a E55! Come on!

They are heavier than pigs and quality is suspect.
And in terms of weight, all German made cast aluminum wheels are heavy. I dont think a stock AMG Style IV 18" wheel that weighs 28/29lbs is that bad.
