I suppose I should have asked if you are looking for real OEM AMG wheels? They can really run into some serious cash! Like 30% of the value of your car. The ones I found above might be knock-offs. One looks real.

Right tires, wrong offsets.

Thank you... Well, couple of them are only real AMG, and others are look alike.

Here is something that might look nice on a Crossfire. A staggered set of 18" wheels which Is what I did to my car. You can use the stock front tire with these wheels and either 255 or 265 40 18's look great. I am using knock offs of the AMG 63 optional wheel.

What do you guys think of Mercedes/McLaren SLR wheels on a Crossfire?

I love them but even the replicas are a bit steep. (maybe my wallet is just a bit shallow?)

I have seen these replica SLR wheels on some new SLK's and thought they looked awesome. I would prefer these in a staggered set of 18's.

Check out the gallery of amick6534 he has some of the best looking wheels I've on a Crossfire. Very similar to what you're looking for.

Very nice, I love that style wheel on Crossfires. I had the 19'' OEM 2 piece SL65 rims($9,000 MSRP) for a while but the fronts wouldn't clear. I was gonna get the same aftermarkets like yours and paint the center the color of the SL65's.

Not having any valve stems will do that to you.
