    Where can I find AMG 18x9.5 deep dish wheels

    I recent bought some used wheels and I m not sure if I m digging them . I may wanna get rid of them to find a factory deep dish 18 mono block wheel . I do like the open feel of this wheel as it shows the rotors but these wheels I have bought isn't really me . Any idea where I can find the AMG deep dish wheels ? Here is what my current wheels look like .

    Ouch, I can see where the fronts are rubbing badly? Looks like a shiney edge portion is making contact and glazing.

    Tires don't rub ? Not sure what glazing your talking about . I m more of a chrome person but tried these to be different . I like the deep dish in the rear . Here is what it looks with factory but wanna a little more lip in the rear

    I currently have 18 inch mono blocks and the rears have about a 2 inch lip but have seen in the past the mono blocks having a wider dish . may be a after market maybe ?

    ahhh I see what you are saying as I did noticed driving the high way I heard a slight rub going over a small dip. but depends on tires too as the new ones I bought for the other set are about a inch less than the others I was replacing. same size 225/40 and 255/35, bought some entry level tires named nanking . even the rears about a inch less
