I am contemplating on getting 19" wheels for my 06 E55 and have been looking at the knock off AMG ones...style 831, 828, etc...power wheels pro has them and I am not even sure which ones come staggered but anyway...Wanted to know if they are weak and might crack easily on NY roads over here? Maybe someone has had experience with these such wheels as they seem very inexpensive. Thanks for any input!

P.S. Yes my car is for sale but I will just offer one set of wheels with it and I don't care if I sell it!

i got some of the sl63 knock off wheels from them. The big downside is that they can no longer engrave AMG on the wheels and instead have these little emblems that go on them. I have already had 3 of the 4 emblems fall off and to replace them is like $25 for all 4. I'm going to try and JB weld the new ones on as the original ones are i think just held on with 3m adhesive. As far a durability is concerned over crappy roads, I am not sure. I can tell you that my OEM E55 wheels developed a crack even though I don't drive it on crappy roads, so my confidence in anything OEM wheel related is not that high.

I had replicas on my car and did about a dozen track days at AMP and Road Atlanta. Never had an issue with them. Reps are hit or miss to be honest.
