LIGHT 19" AND 20" WHEELS FOR W211/E55

I am currently running stock e55/amg wheels on my 03/e55.I need to purchase some light weight wheels,with 3-4" lips that look good,and is not too expensive.
I see some real nice wheels on this site that i would put on my car,but i dont know the prices.
My car is silver........and i think silver with polish lips would look great,or black insert w/polish lips would look just as nice.
If possible i would like the web site where these wheels can be located,or a picture of your ride.

What's not too expensive... loaded question on this board for these cars... I mean I found out I had to sell my Prelude daily driver just to purchase an exhaust for around $13k....

If you lookin for kinesis wanna buy mine???



I have had the wheels since July of this year, but they only been on the car for about 3 months now. Reason is that I've been going to the track every so often and too lazy to swap them back on. Wheels are in perfect condition. Tires are Bridgeston S-03's with about 80%-85% tread left.

Yes the wheels in the pic are the Kinesis K19R's. I just threw it out there. I have been debating for a while whether or not to sell these puppies. I absolutely love the way it looks on the car but I guess I'm just bored with them. I guess if the right price comes along, it's up for sale. They are currently in the garage sitting nice and pretty. Like I said I got them back in July and have been on there for about 3 months tops. Tires still have lots of tread on them too. shoot me a price and if it's in the ballpark that I'm looking at, they are yours... I'll pm you with all the other info on $$$ value a little later...

For $4k you can find wheels but they won't be light trick wheels... they will be cool looking, but most light forged wheels would be closer to $6k or at least that is what I'm finding...

Benzoboi... so did you find a set of Brabus? I know you bought two but passed on the San Diego guy... what are you looking for your wheels... PM me and let's talk... I might pick them up from you at the Meet...

I have not bought any brabus wheels FYI and don't plan on doing so either :p I just threw the idea out there. I love my wheels but I guess I'm just bored with them. Shoot me an offer and I'll see if I will consider it. I guess it's up for sale at the right price...

SL65 AMG
a few days back one of the members posted some wheels from neeze I belive and they are like 15lbs each for the forged 1 piece magnesium wheels. They look good and are super light. My wheel guy is looking into this for me. The price is high, i think he said 2k each on the front and almost 3k each on the rears. I pulled my GFG's off my car and I think they are sold and I am moving over to either a really light wheel or into a bigger 20 inch wheel. I also have the Dunlop rubber
245/35/19 and 275/30/19 still for sale if you need it. They have about 600 miles on them. If the wheels dont go I will let you know. They are lighter then the factory and have about a 3-3.5 inch rear lip.
