kleemann wheels
I have an opertunity to get some 19" kleemann wheels with Z rated tires for very cheap but I dont know what they look like and I cant really find too much info on them. Anyone know anything about this brand of wheels and if they are normally pretty lightweight? Pictures of them if you have any would be great too. Thanks.

My friend sent me this picture saying this is what they look like. I think they look pretty bad *** for $300 w/ nice tire. I dont think I will ever be able to get a deal like this again.

Snap, I'd buy them for that! Kleeman is bank..they make like $10k superchargers for most of the Benz models.
The wheels are bank too, especially if they are authentic. If you don't want them, let me know ahahah I'll have a reason to buy a Mercedes =P

First of all, what is the diameter and width?
Second, what is the offset?
Just because they are the right bolt pattern doesn't mean crap. (Yes it is 5-114.3)
Good width would be at least 8.5" at each corner. Preferably wider in the rear by about an inch to an inch and a half.
Good offset would be somewhere in the +20-25 range front and rear.
These are just estimates- even if the wheels are cheap, know before you buy and waste $300 on rims that look goofy

$300 for all 4 wheels and tires? i really cant imagine why they would sell them for so cheap even if they want to get rid of them. surely they could use the tires for somehting else. Anyway, jeezus, definitly buy them. Even if they dont fit your Z, you could turn around and throw them on EBAY and double triple, quadruple the investment easily.

ok read up about the wheels and apparently they arent very strong, alot of cracking and bending problems...however at 300 for all 4 wheels and tires im sure you could still make an a$$ load of money if you put them on ebay. They sell new for like 5-6 grand, some unsuspecting benz owner will drop a few thousand on them

Be careful not to burn your hands when picking them up/LOL. Seriously the shop must not have a clue what their worth or you would'nt be gettin for that, buy now ask questions later.
