2004 SL55
18" SL55 OEM Wheels - $200 (Houston)

Hey guys, I'm clearing out my original set of 5-spoke AMG wheels from a 2004 SL55. They are in midtown Houston. If you want them, send me an email to mail.longtran@gmail.com. I will not answer PM's, so don't PM me. And I won't ship, local only. Sorry fellas, but I moved to Cali and they're sitting in a buddy's garage and I'd like to clear them out for him.

Pics/Details are here:

Thanks for looking!

Best bet is to find someone local to buy them, pay a little extra and have them cross ship them to you.

That's a good idea! I set the price low at 200 just so I'd have a better chance at a quick sell locally. Reason I won't ship is because I'm in California now (moved 2 mths ago) and the rims are sitting in a friend's garage in Houston. I won't trouble him to ship them, as I'd already been storing them in his garage for a couple of months now.

Also, they should fit on a CLS55 since I had replaced these with the 19's from a CLS55. I don't recall the exact measurements, but I think the tire sizes were: 255/18/40(F) and 285/18/35(R). Anyone else feel free to chime in, since they are stock wheels with stock measurements!

People, the price is $200 firm. Please don't contact me and attempt a negotiation. We all know that even if I sold 1 rim without a tire for $200, it'd be a reasonable price for an OEM rim. You get 4 rims, and no they're not perfect, but the front 2 tires are decent-ish and will last you a few miles before having to change them out. 1 rim was slightly bent on the lip and previous owner of the car had it professionally prepared. I drove several thousand miles on these wheels, no shakes, no wiggles, no nothing. If you own a Mercedes, you can afford $200 for an entire set of wheels, even if only for use as a backup set.

I ripped this off of someone else's post selling the same rims:

Front: 18x8.5,offset is 35mm
Rear: 18x9.5,offset is 33mm
Bolt Pattern: 5X112

Hope it's right!

The offset doesn't mean anything to me, cause my dumbass doesn't even know what offset I need. Either way though, if I can get enough time to make a run to Houston I'll buy them. Your friend doesn't ever travel north, does he?

He works in the Woodlands, so that's as far north as he goes. Honestly, looks like they'll be scooped up today, as a couple of people are already scheduling with him to see the wheels.
