Can you elaborate on polishing out C7's? Did you do it yourself? I've never been a big fan of chrome wheels on the Coupe (and no offense to those who have them), but I like the C7's for some reason. Maybe because it's a little bit stock, a little bit custom. TIA

The C7 Rims are Polished ...Because of two reasons First Mercedes has a Service Information Ref # MBNA 40/18 Dated April 1991 Re All Models NOT to Chrome Plate any of its wheels.
As The Process will WEAKEN the Rim.The TUV Does Not allow it.
Also Chrome Rims Will Leak after a Couple of years
Second When the Wheeels get curb rash..You can have them Repolished..
You Dont get the Same Shine as Chrome but its still Nice
I Had Mag Masters In Santa Ana Do The Rims
As They are Doing My Wider Rear C7s 17x8 s

Euro Part numbers
You Can Try Voyagerdude..He Gave Me Lots of info...Thank You VoyagerDude!Or the dealer Hyatt Mercedes benz Tom in Parts 403-232-6402..The Dollar is NOT Doing Well at this time
The Part Number is a Canada Only Part number 6-6-47-1515
It was NOT on My EPC for Usa/Europe...I Could Not Find a Valid Part Number for the Wider rear rims Because Most part Numbers will start with the Model ie W203 for the C Coupe
I Bought a Set of the Wider rear C 7 Rims That I Had polished to match the fronts..They look Soooo nice and are OE Mercedes With the 255/40/17 the car Handles and looks Much better!
It Fills the rear ...Should have come that way with the C7 sport package!...maybe Mercedes will do this for Next year?...The canada cars come that way. Now! ...go figure?
Yes Got Them! Thanks again!
