I have MB 16'' Wheels from my 2002 C230K.

Two of the rims are bent (but repairable according to shop, ~$150 each for repair bill). All have some scuffs/road rash I believe. Otherwise good shape.

How do I value them, and what avenues should I use to sell them? Are they desirable at all (winter wheels I bet)? I may just repair the two and use them for winter wheels, I am not certain yet.

Input is welcome.

umm. repair them is a waste of money, do they hold air? if they hold air, leave it, paint it matte black yourself, throw on some cheap SNOW tires on it. and either use it if u get a lot of snow, if not, sell it. cheap

Yes, they hold air. Replaced as soon as I got the car, not sure how they feel. I bet in the rear they wouldn't be terrible ??

I'd say the best way to unload them is to throw them in the dumpster. I don't think they have much value at all, though if you want, put up a couple of threads here and in other MB forum classifieds, and see if you get any nibbles. Couldn't hurt, I guess, just don't expect much.

If they're aluminum, take 'em to your nearest aluminum recycling cetner or scrap metal yard. They'll pay you by the pound.

Any easy way to check if they are Al?

They'll AL alloy. I got 20 each scrap for my C7 wheels. Call around for the best price. Places that take cans like CRV dont' take wheels. Sell the other 2 on ebay, or craigslist. Expect 50-100 each. I ended up with 2 good rims, which I've held onto. They come in handy occasionally. Then ran across an entire set of rims for 50 bucks from a guy on the forum! 1 was damaged...sits in storage, the other I sold for 85 on ebay, so basically I got the other 2 I was missing for free. I now have a complete set of 4.

What is the official name of my wheels? They are 16'' OEM stockers, here's a pic! Should be below. If not, click

Is 'Mercedes-Benz C230 Alloy Wheel 16x7 2002-03' an accurate description?

Can you repost those pictures phoenix_iii.

I cant seem to be able to view them.

Created a link. Weird, work for me on my browser, and not linked to local C:.. =)

Cant get to that link either.

If this doesn't work then it's just you. =)

This worked.

Where are you located. I might be interested in the rims if the price is right, although shipping might be an issue. Im in Ottawa, Canada.

I was thinking of putting them up on eBay for $200 + shipping (40/50?) All 4.

PM sent.

So what are these rims officially called/known as? Does ''Mercedes-Benz C230 Alloy Wheel 16x7 2002-03'' qualify?

You should also specify the tire size that can be mounted on it which is P205/55/R16 and 'dual spoke' rims work as a title

Cool thank you. =)

Obviously these are 5x112...but do you know what the offset is? I need some drag rims...and luckily I can fift 16" on the rear of my SRT6...if anyone knows the offset that would help for me to see how easily it would be to put these on.

Offset is 37 if other mbworld.org post is accurate. =)

Damn...I was hoping I would get lucky and they would match my SRT6 rear offset...then I would take them off your hands and turn them into drag rims...now I have to see what else I would have to do...Spacer and different lugs most likely.

I was trying to sell all 4 of my stock ones for 150 with tires.. no one wanted them.. so they will sit in my garage

Hell, I might be willing to take those... 17x what? offset?
