The MB Market Insights
It's rare we see a set of wheels that we've never seen before. This particular set happens to be one of those sets. Although the have W203 part numbers, they're width and offsets make them usable on many different chassis and models. The 5-spoke design became the primary design language for AMG in the early 2000's and the 2-piece versions are rare to find. Cromodora wheels were used on nearly every chassis by AMG but most commonly used the dual spoke versions. For any wheel nerds who want to set themselves apart, these wheels would be a welcomed addition.
I'm firmly bullish on these.
it might be the one wheel even seasoned wheel nerds didn't see coming.
For instance Tony @alloywheeldirect doesn't show the correct visual on his site for these :

even though his knowledge is unparalleled when it comes to wheels.
It's very rare to find a 18" AMG multi piece wheel that wasn't made by BBS.
these are bolt on for R170, C203 and of course W203 cars.
These have the added advantage to take M12 bolt meaning they will fit most W124, W202, W210 chassis.
For R129 cars I can't guarantee fitment, especially on V8 and V12 variants.
finally shipping is offered at 490 USD for worldwide economy shipping.
These are in great, usable condition from the get go.
whoever is getting these is sure to get a very rare item at a killer price.
