Good grief...that's a lot of money.

I don't even know if I would like the way these look on the SRT...hmmm

photoshop anyone?

Are those PS2s? That's crazy to think they didn't even come with Sport Cups...weird

6K for used wheels? (in my opinion are not that great looking) is absolutely silly

Yeah I don't care if they added 100 horsepower and served pancakes, that's insane.

Here are the replica's for $669 for all four. They look 100% real unless an SLR plus up beside you and how often does that happen?

Those strike me as more of a Lorinser replica...

SLR has the domed center and a much more aggressive arc on the spoke. Still, nice looking wheels. I've always like the LM-6's

Those wheels are horrible imo!! I would never bolt on mercedes wheels on my car, especially if our stock wheels look ten times better than those.

I know I have seen them for much less. I think they were in the $1,500 range. Maybe they were aftermarket copies. Now you have my curiosity up to search where I saw them.
