Anybody Want To Swap Wheels?

Hey guys. My 1996 G320 has the 16" factory wheels (see pic), and I'd like to find somebody out there who has the 18" wheels from a 2002+ gwagen (AMG or the regular OEM wheels, either is fine) who would like to swap in order to mount up AT or Mud type tires.

I have a full set of five wheels, in great shape. The four wheels on the ground have Michelin LTX M&S tires 265/75-16 size, three of which have about 50% tread left and one is brand new ( less than 1k miles). The spare has a 285/75-16 Dakota AT tire. My plan was to replace the Michelins with 285/75-16 tires also next year.

When I say swap, I mean straight up, five wheels for five wheels, no money exchanged, I ship mine to you, you ship yours to me, each side pays for their own shipping costs. Any takers? Post here or email me at mcarpenter@pbandw.com

No definite takers yet Dutch. Mike Serpe said he's interested but needs to come across a set of wheels to trade with first.

Any nicks, scratches or curb rash? Are they true?

Re: Anybody Want To Swap Wheels?

I have 4 wheels that I will trade...
18" with (43mm Offset).

I have only used them for about 5000 miles.

I also have a set of (5) 18" (63mm offset) wheels that came with my G320. One of them is damaged (used as a spare). These are have a lot more wear-and-tear and would not be a fair trade for you.

Re: Anybody Want To Swap Wheels?

Hey Chuck. Are those 63mm offset wheels, are they AMG, is that the reason for the higher offset? Can you email me some pictures (mcarpenter@pbandw.com)? I'd prefer to trade 5 for 5. If you can pick up a single from somewhere on those 43mm offset rims, then we might have something.

By the way, you said your G320 come with 18's, what year is that truck? Is that the gray 2001 Brian Buxton was selling about 6 months ago?


Josh, I'm still keeping my eyes open for a single. If I find one, I'll let you know, maybe we can strike a deal.

Re: Anybody Want To Swap Wheels?

The 63mm offset are identical to your offset. Remember, I have the same IDENTICAL G320 you have.

I will email you directly for the rest...

Re: Anybody Want To Swap Wheels?

ez rhino,

take one of these fellows up on their offer if they already have what you need.

If not, then call me or email me back and I will get you 5 G500 wheels for trade.
