Luxury Model Wheels

Are the Luxury Model wheels available both in silver and a blue tinged style? I recently saw the blue wheels on a white C Class and didn't like the looks. It seemed that earlier I had seen the luxury 20 spoke wheels in silver.

Hi Jim, I just did a build on MBUSA for all 3 trims and can't find any blue tint wheels. I've gone test driving plenty and the wheel pics online look spot on to real life. Wonder if a bad run of rims? Dealer able to show build option for them on net star? There's also a good number of wheels dealer order-able that aren't online for the C. Most of them 18-19". May be able to roll the different wheels into the deal. (Pun not intended)

If your dealer has a luxury model, I bet it has the blue tinted wheels. They should look good with Palladium or Iridium Silver but not with white.
I looked for other options but I don't want 18 or 19" wheels. I believe they are getting away from the silver wheels.

I agree on 17 due to ride on runflats. Would they change out to R48, if you like? On this link is what I saw, and if different, I'd inquire to the code for the different option for blue to skip them. Should be easy for them...but....a lot of typical dealer/MBUSA confusion. It shouldn't be like an unmarked box of chocolates. I'll take a look at dealer next time, just searched their online pics of inventory and matches link.

They're not really blue tinted, they're painted dark grey. But I don't think you'll find them in the silver color, they're silver in other markets or sizes I believe.
