where to buy OEM wheels C230 kompressor?

I got a flat tire on my 2005 MB C230 Kompressor. I brought the rear wheel to discount tire and apparentely the rear wheel got crack. Discount tire are out of the stock for the wheel and I do not know where to get the OEM wheels?

Anyone has any suggestion where to get just one of those OEM wheels? I need one rear wheel.

Size should be 17 x 8.5.

Thanks for the info.

EBAY There is always a single available in all styles esp for mercedes

You can also try to get it repaired and refinished, they did wonders for my Acura wheel as none were available on on Ebay at the time and the cost from the dealer was huge.

You also might want to buy a set of replicas for the mercedes (also on ebay) as you might find that a set of 4 is less cost than a single OEM from the dealer

Don't get a replica, the paint/color may not match. Get a new one from Duval Motors, their prices are pretty good for a genuine parts. Link is on my website. You may have to email them to get the part number and then enter that in.

that is true if you are only buying 1 and would never suggest to buy a single to fit in with the other 3. I got 4 brand new to use as my winter wheels at less cost that a single OEM wheel 4 were around $500.

If you are hard up for cash, that is the best method as then after you get the replicas, you sell individually the OEM's to people that have the same problem as you have and you probably will make back the cost of the replicas, maybe a bit more

Just take it to a machine shop and they will repair it and refinish it.
