Re: ID these rims

Definitely an AMG wheel for the Mercedes.


Could be the Mercedes Benz AMG Monoblock II
Available is both 18" and 19" x 8.5 wide

But on the SVX, more likely the Mercedes Benz Aero 4 wheels
17" x 8"

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-17-...-/111242563878

Available on the the full size Mercedes and the SL Class from the mid 1990's.

Re: ID these rims

Or maybe something similar from Zender, Alpina, or other Euro tuner in the 90s?

Re: ID these rims

I once read that these are actual OEM SVX wheels that were only offered in one country or something... am I wrong?

I remember reading that too, Germany I believe it was said, but I don't think it is true because this is the only picture I have ever seen.

Re: ID these rims

Mercedes 17" AMG Aero 4 Monoblock alloy wheels, 8J, et11, 5x112,
will Mercedes benz rims work it say 5-112
our cars a 5-114.3 and offset is only 28
probably not a good option going I am guessing

Re: ID these rims

They won't fit. Wrong bolt pattern and too small an offset.
