Hi all,
I am in the process of getting my 2 piece AMG Split Rim 18 inch wheels refurbished by Lepsons. (Picture of wheel type attached)
Two of the wheels had been painted before I bought them and therefore the bolts were painted over. Lepsons have emailed saying that they have stripped...
Hi all,
I'm asking Lepsons for a quote to refurbish my AMG 2 piece 18 inch split rims. I bought the wheels last year and they have been repainted by the past owner.
Does anyone know the original finish? Is it painted face and polished rim or painted face and diamond cut rim, or another...
They're on eBay, item number 141881395947 (completed a few days ago, but read on...). This is an abridged version of the ad text:
"Off a 1994 SL500; 10mm spacers needed on the front come with them, so do centre caps. Front tyres are 245/40/18 (Michelin, Pirelli), rears 255/35/18 (Avon...
After a lengthy search, is is true that the AMG IV19" wheels are not split rims? I'm about to get mine refurbished with new MPSS and would like to know as it has a huge impact on cost.
Thanks all.
Hi A,, I am converting my Vito into a camper. I am at present sorting out the split charge system and mains hook up. First question what is the best place to connect to the battery under the seat or under the bonnet, remembering that I am using 16mm cable and have to fit an inline fuse...
I have just been told by MB that the dust cover (gaiter) on my R129 SL320 steering drop link balljoint is split. It was OK in June when I had the car MOT'd. MB want £419.80 plus VAT because they insist on fitting a new drop link assembly !
I only want a dust cover. Does anyone know where I...

Hi all,
After faffing around for months, I bit the bullet and bought a set of the 2 piece split rims for my R129. It has replicas on it at the moment, although came with the originals when sold, so trying to get it back as it was.
The wheels seem to be in reasonable condition. I've not...
Hi all,

Hi all,
A slight school boy error moment! I bought this wheel off of forum member 'Mercedes man' on Saturday. Lovely guy and thanks for the wheel, exactly as described.
In my stupidity I didn't check the exact size of my current wheels! My fronts are 18 x 8.5JJ ET 25. The new wheel is 18 x 8JJ...

Hi all,
My R129 SL500 has a set of the replica 18 inch staggered AMG Split Rims. (see my pics). My front drivers side has been damaged and although not unsafe, it means there is an annoying vibration at speed. I've had the wheel checked and it can't be repaired.
I would love a set of...
I all, I hope the weeks going well.
My 1997 SL500 originally came with a set of staggered 18 inch AMG Split rims. It has the small rear plastic wheel arch fins that were factory fitted for this and also has factory rolled front arches to accommodate the wheels. These are all on the dealer...

I recently bought an SL55.
I am reading the last garage bill that came with car, under recommendations this was stated so it has not been replaced.
What is this? and how is it effecting my car currently? and how much does it cost.
Thank you.
