I doubt anyone's going to be making replicas of STOCK rims.

You like them? I think they're pretty nice for stock. Mine came chromed, which looks real nice on my diamond black car.

If you don't mind replicas... I've been happy with the wheels I've seen from wheelexchange.com

I know sure of the wheels you are referring to, but here their MB wheel selection.

I got some OEM replica wheels with A/S tires to use in the winter from them. I'm very happy with the price and product I got.

also, check the CLASSIFIED threads on this forum, some might already be for sale, for the same reason mick1 described. If not, just post a thread yourself: WTB: '05 C-Class Stock Wheels or something like that, and have people PM you or e-mail you with info.

When you think about it, $248 (msrp) per rim is not bad at all for a genuine MB product. They are cool rims.

The best thing about these rims are the wider rears, can fit a 255 tire
Mine are polished and will look great when the original tires wear out and I go with PO3s at 255 will be at least 2 inches wider than the C7 rims
