Amg Wheels @tirerack
Does anyone know if the AMG wheels at tire rack are the exact thing, or are they copies ?
At the MB dealer the new 19" 2 piece wheels are $2200.00 ea.
At Tirerack they are $1150.00.

I don't understand why these dealers drill these bumpers before the cars are sold.
I assume the transfer of the tire pressure sensor is fairly straight forward?
Again, thanks for your answer, and I will call them tomorrow.

Mine a clearly marked AMG, and I am sure they are not knock-offs.
TTR could not stay in business long if they are selling undocumented fakes! Your really should have posted this in TTR's forum. Luke will not look over here, and it is kind of unfair to post something like this where they cannot defend themselves.

I do a fair amount of business with them, so I know they are legit.
The website, however, doesn't clearly claim they are OEM. They do have the little trademark on the AMG name, but I wasn't sure.
Additionally, the price was so much less, it seemed suspect.
I appologize if I bumbed anyone out.
