AMG deep dish monoblock II replicas

Has anyone tried or seen these deep dish replicas on an E500E? How do they look?


It say bolt pattern 5 x 112 but elsewhere it says bolt pattern 5x112, 5x120, so confusing.

Not sure about the quality of construction.

They just don’t look right to me and a little weird.
I would have to see them on an E500E. They might be OK for a car show or display but for everyday driving I’m not so sure. Unless they have a TUV or DOT approval I’d stay away from them.

I would be very concerned about the quality. The strength of that deep dish would worry me a bit. The first pothole you go thru might bend it or just doing 85 to 90 mph and having a failure. Would you be comfortable at top speed? I wouldn’t.

Just my $00.02
