I meant that they were not OE like previously stated but were made aftermarket and that may have been the inspiration. Having an unpopular vehicle may make it more appealing to "copy" as it won't be seen often. Either way, I agree they aren't original

Ask the seller for the part number stamped on the inside of the wheel. Every single MB wheel will have this. When he can't produce this, cancel the sale. Aren't all of the w211 AMG wheels produced by Ronal, in Italy? Not to mention, 1 wheel is cracked and needs repair, and one more shows previous repair. Yikes.
