Will These Wheels Fit/are They Good Quality?

Do you guys think these wheels fit on my 05 sport sedan( clear the brake calipers), and more importantly are they going to bend or peel asap so much that it is not worth it?

How about these in 18 inch good quality or not?

You want to make sure that those wheels will clear your front caliper.

Just a consideration; this is a recurring theme.

If for whatever reason you want to buy NON MBZ wheels, at least buy known-quality brand names. Check the ones that Tire Rack sells and that will give you some of those names. You purchased a premium car; skimping and saving a few bucks on wheels doesn't make sense. Please don't potentially entrust your lives and those of your loved ones to unknown brand wheels.

America's Tire/Discount Tire also carry the better brands.

Even if you want to buy them elsewhere, check those folks to get an idea of the brands.

Take care and enjoy the ride,
Greg

Thanks guys I had my reservation anyway about these tires from the onset and I will definitely reconsider. Even though the C class is the only benz I can afford right now I am usually not one to go cheap on accessories and maintenance for my vehicles especially my two benzo's. I just wish there was some way to amek the old monoblock amg rim onto my 05 c230. I just love that look
