Liking the alloys Bryce.
Do you know what model alloy these are and where they are available please?
My AMG IV 5 twin spoke alloys are in serious need of a refurb.
A set like yours might be the answer while I get them done.

Are they kerbed or suffering from corrosio Rog?

AMGeed I bought them off another MB Club member, they're KR647 but not sure on brand, 19".
I did just what you're thinking, bought the "new" alloys and removed knackered originals to get refurbed.

Did they come off a black E63? If so I remember seeing them at the time and thinking about buying them.
I have seen them on an alloy wheel website but the ET's were way different to the correct ones for an E55.
I'll keep looking.

Kerbed Abs. Only got myself to blame as well. Poor judgement.
We’ve all been there mate

Yep, bought them off celicasaurus and he'd had them on an E63.

I think the Standard alloy's do look alot better in Anthracite over Silver, It was something i was thinking of doing but one of mine were cracked so i bought a New set of non oe wheels,
Great looking car nickjonesn4 , and Wow what a lovely House pictured too.

Cheers, its the Nüfenen pass, sort of in the middle of Switzerland.Cjab98! What a cracker!! My fav wheels too Brabus monoblocks
Cracking picture bud, where is that taken ??
And Brabus was not just the wheels, its a 530BHP Brabus K8
I had it for 2 years but sold it recently, it struggled a bit with the winters here. Replaced by a G55 that should be able to cope with anything nature can throw at it

Well 9 s211 e55k's and counting, I wonder if the Estate's have a more pampered life compared to the Saloons? Just thinking they probably dont get thrown around as much.
Keep them coming peeps, and thanks to all who have contributed
I’d say on the other hand, estate cars are used more as work horses, lugging loads/buggies/shopping and families about etc. The saloons are more of an ‘executive express’
Perhaps as they get older the saloons attract a different crowd, ie tuning etc but that’s just a generalisation I suppose
