They look to be the real AMG turbine alloys often seen on CL55AMG's. I see the AMG logo on one close up pic.

Nice wheels and look a good price to me.!

Yea they do look originals and very good price at that. Make sure you check all 4 of them with AMG badge before buying. Also dont forget tyres would be over £300 for these along with wheel bots etc so add that all to the price before buying

as you can see these have more spokes, can you get these wheels in different types (i.e. one with more or less spokes) or are they fake?? There brand new by the way.


Many thanks.

Hi,
If you have any doubt ask the seller for the MB pt. no.'s (embossed on the inside of the wheel, post them up and someone will look the number up for you.

Agreed with Pricey, there are 2 different designs in this style. You should still ask seller for part number as advised by Andy as then you can be sure if they really are originals

even if the wheels in the photo are real it's not necessarily the ones you get ?

I can't get my head around these ET figures.......not sure what will fit and what won't??? Ok it seems my cars wheels are...front et - 34, rear et - 34 (I think, got standard 16" alloys on). These wheels are front et 38, rear et 39. So what does this mean???
