FS Kinesis K19R

As some of you guys on the board know me, I have Kinesis K19R's on my W211 E55. I bought these wheels back in July of 2005. Now the wheels have been on the car for a total of about 3 months total now. I took them off because I went to the drag strip a couple times and just got lazy and never put them back on. Anyways they are also the very first set for a mercedes.

The wheels are 19x8.5F and a 19x10R wrapped in Bridgestone S-03 PP's. The centers of all four of the wheels are shot peened and anodized. The tires are a 245/35/19F and a 275/30/19R. The tires also have about 80%-85% of tread left on all the wheels. No damage what so ever. I also plan on selling the tires along with the tires.

$ 4,200 OBO

EDIT:
The reason I'm selling these wheels are that I'm bored of them. ONLY REASON. I love the way these wheels look on the car, but I get bored very easily when it comes to wheels. That is all...

Here are some pics...

I have always been a fan of your car, I even plan to make mine (very soon) look like yours with the WALD sides and all...

You're looking to sell it quick or not? I might save up for this, love it so much on the E55...

It cost $150 to ship my rims from Texas to California, but that was without tires. Not sure how much the tire weight adds to shipping.

Let's say $200 for all four with tires and insurance... does that sound fair?

Just thought I'd post since they're such nice rims. I wish you would've listed your rims before I bought mine! Good Luck on the sale!

The WALD sides are a completely seperate pieces from the AMG ones. For the rear, you have to get the sport bumpers off the E500. In Japan, they don't have the AMG kit so they had to work off the E500 sport bumpers. You can get that at the dealers. I had mine custom molded to give it a more cleaner line. Hope that helps...

You, what's really funny: We should just swap wheels and tires and save a lot of money since they basically cost the same, are the same size, and both look great on silver E55s. Kinesis for Kinesis. My K29s for your K19s. Then we'll switch back in 6 months. To me the K29s have a different edge to them, but I always like the clean lines of the 19s. I'd have both if I wouldn't die from guilt. Hehe.
