HRE 19's staggered. Fix em yourself and save.
19 inch HRE's from my SL55. 10.5 inch rear, 9 inch front. Polished rims, black centers. $6000+ new. Both front wheels need repair (straightening) see pics. The damage is on the inner rim only. I drove with the wheels in this condition for years and didnt know they were bent. A local wheel repair shop charges about $120 per to fix. Right side wheels have significant curb rash and need polishing. Best bet is local pickup in OC, but will ship on your dime. Taking offers.

Yes totally fixable. They are 3 piece wheels and in the worst case scenario you just change the barrel. They were bent driving over a freeway onramp during repaving where a 3 inch lip was left in the concrete. I drove for 10k miles with them like this so they certainly hold air. Didnt even know they were bent. The only thing I notice was a slight high speed tremor in the steering wheel. SL suspension in pretty awesome. 
The pics look bad because I want to accentuate the damage so you see worst case scenario. Nothing to hide. Rears are fine just curb rash on right.
I was going to send them to HRE for rebfurb and to change the centers to brushed clearcoat, but just bought Renntech 20's (all four of which were bent when I got them and had to be straightened
)
Best offer so far is $570. Will let them go for $750 now or the best offer standing in 3 days. Local pickup gets preference so I avoid the shipping hassle.
