The reserve price was not met. I’m still interested in buying the wheel. Could you please let me know the minimum price? Thank you in advance.
Another brutal reminder that nice things cost nice money :) Beautiful wheels.

@Why_Not auction will be over before I have a chance to go to my storage unit with a scale to weigh rims. I’m sure google or ChatGPT has the answer for you
@bigjay850 I’m not sure why they covered it with paint. I have another set as well and it’s been refinished and not all numbers showing. It’s like most any wheels you get refinished. Offset is et17 and et18 best fit is the 126 chassis. May fit other vehicles with spacers or rolled fenders. Must do your own research
@Amg888 were you able to identify required stamped numbers on the center under new finish mentioned by @AMG5pt4?
Any chance you could post an accurate wheel weight, both front and rear? I imagine these fronts would fit over the 1999-2002 R129 Brembo brake setup. Does anyone out there know for certain?

@AMG5pt4 appreciate your knowledge. No other photos. They were for my w126 560 sel. Instead kept the black face mounted.
Never seen OZ Racing AMG wheels that did not have the AMG part #'s (C7400175 for the 8.5x17 fronts and C7400146 rears), offset (ET18 for the fronts and ET17 for the rears), and wheel size (8.5J x 17 and 10J x 17) stamped on the underside of the center piece). I have owned several sets of these wheels. The other stamps are correct. Was there so much paint slathered on the bottom side of the center that these stamps are covered over? This question is of some importance to the rear wheels - AMG had OZ Racing make rear 10x17's with an offset of ET5 specifically for SEC widebody fitment. These WB wheels are ultra rare, but with no stampings visible, hard to know. This could affect fitment (rubbing fender openings) if by some rare chance these are ET5 wheels. Do you have pics of these wheel centers before you had them refinished to further verify there are no lug hole cracks that have been covered by heavy paint? Link to a set of similar wheels I sold years ago showing the missing/covered stamps: https://www.benzworld.org/threads/fs-amg-oz-3-piece-wheels-staggered-show-quality.1623430/?post_id=5004809#post-5004809 BTW, I had a set of these wheels mounted to my ex-R129 1996 SL320 with no fitments issues or rubbing - direct bolt on. However, I did not lower the car, so that may cause rubbing or require rolling the rear fenders.
@AMG888, Ajebran has a good point, do fenders and 1/4 panels need rolling to fit their offsets? I'm sure they look good but it would be helpful to know what the clearances are once installed. Have you had them on a lowered R129? Respectfully

@Ajebran Aero 3s look incredible on the R129 platform. Where in NY?
will this fit a 1997 SL500? and How much to ship to NY
