AMG Wheel Did Mercedes offer this wheel Diamond Cut wheel from the Factory ?

Or have peolpe just cut the wheels after

If from Factory what models ?

That is how they came from the factory.

My 18"s on the '43 are not diamond cut they are bare metal highly polished. They look amazing but a bugger to keep clean.

My car is OME and the wheel is fully painted ?

They have been re-furbed then. The diamond cut lip is a factory finish on these AMG's.

^Agreed. I had a C36 from almost new. The diamond cut lip was a pain to keep clean.

What sort of price is it to refurb a wheel to this standard ?

 

[tpwuk]

There's a good chance they were too badly kerb damaged to re-cut the lip, so the refurbisher filled and painted instead. Much easier to take care of in my opinion.

£200 ish plus VAT for four wheels

You have a very nice man ( Jason ) to keep them clean though Olly

My 1999 E55 AMG has an original AMG 18's in the boot which is diamond cut. I hate it myself and prefer the all-over refurb. If I was to get them re-done I'd choose the 'sparkle silver' finish instead of flat silver, it looks amazing.

I will check mine when I get home since they are still in their boxes from AMG

c36 17 and e55 18 were both diamond cut from factory, i had both 17`s and 18`s over 9 years and refurbed ones always start going milky when exposed to the elements, so in the end i got a brand new non refurbed set and changed over to non diamond cut 18s in the winter.

people just paint the whole wheel because of this when refurbing.

Anyone know where I could get my set refurbed by way of painted/powdercoated face's with highly hand polished lips that are left exposed and unlaquered?
