HREs are not $2000...they are $1100 per wheel in the cheapest 440R series, so you're looking around $4400 at least per set.

Here's my car when it had HRE 448R.

Great choice! Not all that bling. Looks clean like a Mercedes should. A little lower and you will be right on.

I have had HRE's on all my cars. You get what you pay for. They are top of the line wheels but you do pay top dollar for them. Figure on spending close to $5000 for a nice set with some nice rubber on them.

Paint is prone to chipping though...gotta powdercoat if you want that added protection.
Are those the standard silver paint? Looks a bit darker.

yeah, but it chips REALLY easily. They're standard silver, but probably look darker because of lighting conditions

LOL...Nah, dawg. In Phil's defense, he has VERY good reason for not dumping that mug yet. I'm actually hoping he doesn't for the reason that he's hesitated thus far.

But, I still give him a hard time every single time I talk to him! Phil...lots of sales! CarLab's got a group buy over there...What's the deal?...hahaha

NZO wheels for C-Class. Pics inside

We are a new vendor on the site, and I wanted to introduce our wheel line up which is specifically fit for each application.

We are able to run a 18/19x8.5 front and a 18/19 x 10 rear with no modifications and optimal tire sizes. These are direct hub centric bolt ups and take a mercedes center cap.

Here are some pictures of the 19" Corsa on the C-Class. We also offer the Pino mesh wheel for the C-Class application which is pictured on the E-Class below. Please excuse the quality as we do not have professional photos for all models.

For pricing and member deals, check the thread in Vendor Specials
