HELP! Need to Find Wheels
I know I have asked a couple of vendors around the forums but I haven't really been able to put much focus towards getting the new set of wheels that I've been putting off getting for the past year 
Now I am in dire need of new tires (mine are about to blow) and I rather buy new wheels when I get the tires so as not to waste a set of brand new tires if I decide to purchase the wheels half way through their lifetime. What I am looking for is the EXACT same wheel as seen on the 65 series vehicles. The 19'' Titan Grey Style III Two Piece. The offset I am told is to be the same as the SL 65. Ive gotten quotes recently hovering at $6,000 which is pretty steep. I am MORE than willing to purchase used wheels if anyone is planning on getting a new set. Any help or quotes is greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

It helps alot actually, I checked 'em out but they do not have the grey centers. If they don't sell soon, I may look into purchasing them and just painting the centers myself. Thanks for the notice though!

I hope you wouldn't ask that, I was actually working on compiling that list in a few hours officially 
However, just to give you a start, try the following companies:
www.evosport.com
www.euroteckmotorsports.com
www.tirerack.com
If you choose the last option, make sure you buy through our tirerack.com link in our Marketplace dropdown menu so mbworld.org gets a percentage of your sale donated back to us to keep the server running

Anybody know if these will fit on an E55? Listing from eBay:
These wheels and tires were removed at the dealership from a brand new Mercedes SL65 AMG car.They are authentic multi piece AMG wheels with the brilliant silver finish.I am told they are the "Silver Arrow Edition" wheels.The front wheels are 19x8.5 ($1249 each) and the rears are a massive 19x10 ($1299 each).The 10 inch rears are a option (most SL65 rears are 19x9.5) The tires are the high performance Michelin Pilot Sports.The front tires are 245/35/19 and the rears are 275/30/19.The tires alone cost $1100.You can verify prices at www.tirerack.com The wheels do have the TPMS system also (Tire pressure monitoring system).
