OEM SL Alphards with nearly new Contis
Very nice shape, this is what would have been the wheel on the 2004/2005 SL 500 Sport package and some SL600's of those years. True, round and straight, each of the fronts have some curb damage, which you could repair if you like. The rears are very near perfect. Best news is that they have an excellent set of Continental Extreme Contacts, they are nearly new. Fronts measure 7-8/32, and rears are at least 9/32 (remember, 10-32 is new depth). I have caps but no lugs (exisiting lugs should work for R230.)
They are 8.5/18, ET35 F, and 9.5x18 R, ET40. They are of course, a perfect fitment for R230, and I have seen them work on W215 and W220. They also look great on R129 SL's (but you would need at least some smaller front tires). PLEASE make sure of your fitment before pushing the button on these. I don't want them coming back for lack of fitments, etc. Do your homework, and you'll see what they fit.
If you have a car with bent, beat up or non-sport wheels, this would be a great and easy fix. A set of these tires alone is around $1000, so I think I'm pretty fair at $900 for the set. If I'm not, make me a close offer. I'd rather not ship them, at least not at this point. I'm in the Metro ATL area, check me out on good buyers and sellers, and have Paypal. More pictures if you need them. Thanks.

OK, less....
One more try here, make a reasonable offer. In the way in the garage. These make a great looking wheel setup if your SL doesn't have Sport package, and they also look great as an upgrade on a earlier 129 SL. Thanks...

Hey Markland,
Thanks for the picture. That really is a great setup on a 129. If one of you guys needs these for a 129, I'll separate them for you, then not so tough to ship. I'll keep the tires for my next SL....
