I've been looking for new staggered black rims for my c230 that would fit the stocked tires, but I couldn't find any I liked.. would anyone know how a 17x7.5 rim would work with a tire thats made for 17x8.5?

or you could just sell your stock wheels and tires and buy what ever wheel and tires you want. A lot of people like the 07 wheels so you wouldn't have to much trouble selling them.

So?
you can still sell them, as long as there not bent people will buy it. Some curb rash isnt going to hurt anyone

you can get the scratched rims all refinished for about 100 each. Im actually getting all 4 of my wheels refinished and repainted so they are the same color as the hyper silver Camaro Rims

I'm not sure why you'd go through the trouble of getting new rims, just so they'd fit your current tires?

What are you looking to accomplish with aftermarket rims? That would help people with making recommendations.

My '07 rims went FAST! Of course I offered them pretty cheap with a pretty new set of Conti DWS tires on them.

Plus if your going to spend the money to get new wheels you might as wheel get 18s or 19s, and stock tires in my opinion are just to big for aftermarkets. I think its more resinable to sell your current wheels and tires and then you have a huge amount of options for wheels. With what you want to right now your going to be extremely limited to what you will find, good luck
