2005 C230 SS
Thumbs up Decided on New Rims - now I need to sell my 05 C230 SS Sport Rims

Well I have decided to buy some new rims and I must say that it will be hard to say goodbye to my stock sport rims. They are the nicest looking C-Class rims that mercedes has ever come out with in my opinion. I got a good deal on some 19' inch AMG replicas that I couldn't resist so it is time for me to sell my 2005 C230 SS stock sport rims.

All four rims are in good condition - very minor curb rash / my front 2 continental tires are still in pretty good shape so they can be used but my rear tires are just about bald. I have put 19,800 miles on these rims in 22 months and my car has always been garage kept. I am a car fanatic so I take very good care of everything and anything regarding my car, down to the smallest detail. These rims and tires have not caused me any problems and that have been very reliable for me.

Even after being a member of this forum for so long I still haven't figured out how to post pics / so if you would like to see some pics please PM me and I will send them to your e-mail address.

I am pricing these rims to sell because I really have no patience when it comes to selling stuff - I am asking for $640 for the set including the front tires...I think that is a reasonable price. I would like for a pick up sale instead of me having to ship them but I will do what I have to do. If the rims need to be shipped then the buyer pays for shipping. (I live in Lake Worth, FL)

I am not planning on posting these rims on e-bay - I would like to sell the rims to a forum member. FYI...My new rims should be arriving by the end of the month so that is when my stock sport rims will become available.

All offers will be considered...

Thanks!

Are these still for sale?

Are they the 5 spoke or the 7 spoke design?
and I might be stupid for asking, but are they Staggered?

I assume these will bolt right on a 2003 C230K coupe? Any rubbing issues? I currently have the 5 dual spoke 16" wheels, which I am fond of. I wish I could find a picture of yours. I tried Google image search, but no help.

I honestly think these rims would look good on any C-Class..even on the station wagons! (station wagon owners please don't get mad...I am jk)

Tony Berry: these rims would fit perfectly on your car - no spacers needed and no rubbing / if you want more detailed pics just let me know and I will e-mail them to you

Vivid: Nice pic...that is exactly what the rims look like

I'm totally thinking about it, but shipping would suck.


Are they chrome or grey?

Bump!!!!

After changing my mind a few times and I think I am going to stick with selling my stock rims. Need to sell them fast because I really don't have the room in my garage.

**Price Drop**
$575 plus shipping

What a steal! Talk about priced to sell!

Always wondered what i could get for my rims (5 spoke, stag, chrome) like yours.



575 seems so cheep! I guess there just isnt a big market for stocks.


Good luck with your sale! Free bump!
