Places to find Monoblock II's??
I've scowered ebay and craiglist for them and no luck.
Where else could I look for them? I PM'd one guy (the thread about the 265 wheels fitting)...but after 4 days I've had no responses...so I've given up on those. Other suggestions?

Thanks guys
![]() I found a set for $600 with good tires and I think I'm gonna grab em this weekend! Fingers crossed! I went with 17" as my logic is that depreciation on these wheels are close to nothing assuming no damage is done. After I put em on...If I still feel like 18" would look better I'll just keep my eyes open for a good deal -- buy em up and sell off the 17's for close for what I bought them for. Seem reasonable?

found mine on craigslist locally but that was after 2 months of daily searching and going to see some bad examples. if the set you found is clean and 600 with tires, go for it!

Well the guy who I was dealin with fell through -- He forgot to mention they were replicas in the listing -.-
I like those staggered ones, but is that a reasonable price considering they have a little damage?

$229 new? Maybe a mistake...but... Would 18x9 even fit?

i dont see the difference between reps and original just because it has an AMG carved in the rim... thats about it in my eyes
and yes mine are all 9's and i love them they look beautiful and i also had them finished in black with the finished silver lip

Thanks for the link. A little out of my price range....
The website I posted above -- They have 18x9's for $229 each. I emailed and "indirectly" asked about the price as confirmation to make sure they aren't a mistake. If they aren't I'll start by buying them up.
