18" AMG 5 spoke wheels?
18" AMG 5 spoke wheels?
Hi all,
I came across these 18" 5 spoke AMG wheels fitted beautifully on a 2006 E320 CDI at a dealership during my cruise this morning. I've been searching on and off for these exact wheels for some time for my Crossfire but I can't seem to locate a genuine set. What Benzies came with these? Are there matching 19" wheels as well so that I don't have to sacrifice the stock wheel size? Thanks!

These look like them. Price is right for genuine AMG rims. Around $500 EA. and that's for reconditioned originals.
You're better off with replicas unless you're prepared to pay around $2800 for a set of 4 original AMGs.

Needswings sells a full set of replicas that are very similar to these. $750 / set plus ship.

I really wanted to avoid buying replica wheels, but the checkbook is about as scrawny as I am.

My experience is that unless the aftermarket wheel is very well built they are not as good as the factory wheels. Also in recent years there have been a flood of oriental wheels that, like 2 ply tires, are not even safe in the driveway. I would trust someone like Needswings but few others.
I have a set of Enkeis I like for the blue car but all of my other cars are on factory wheels, except for the XF, 16x7 or 15x8.

Many like the Mandrus rims that are made exclusively for MB. I personally like the Mannheims.

I really like these and thought about going this route previously. Just on the fence. I like the stock srt wheels too. Anyone have a pic of these wheels on a crossfire?
Re: 18" AMG 5 spoke wheels?
JUst so you are aware, Mike's pictured below are the same ones posted and are a simple 5 spoke. Mine, posted below on the graphite coupe are actually 10 spoke, because it is open between the pairs and machined/painted. I am also lowered on an 18/20 stagger, not sure about Mike's but I believe OEM sizes...
Re: 18" AMG 5 spoke wheels?
Thank you!
Best of luck with the hood, I have had a friend trying to get one for 3 years with zero luck. Unless you convince 10+ other people to spend $1,000+ on a hood and shipping, it won't happen...

Re: 18" AMG 5 spoke wheels?
But I'm in love with the Mandrus Mannheim wheels! And the price is great as well. I'll have to pay discounttires a visit!

Here's another source for Mercedes Benz replica's for your Crossfire. This site permits the buyer to buy a mix, 18's and 19's.
