Chillcat,
What size are those wheels? Are they staggered?

I have 19" Brabus Monoblock VI staggered on my white SL.

Staggered means the front and rear wheels are not the same width. The front is narrower than the rear, kind of like the old American muscle cars with the big fat rear wheels.

I wish these wheels came in a polished finish--because when down the road you can always REpolish them, and chrome wheels must be kept up with and constantly cleaned, keep the brake dust off them as much as possible. Lemme know if you want any other pics of these, I'm gonna take a pic and send it to wheelexchange for their advertising purposes.

Thanks Buffaloe. Just sold the amg wheels to a local guy for $250, I think he got a pretty good deal on them, considering the tread on the tires was pretty new
