How much should I expect to pay for the C300 AMG wheels for 18" or 19"? Any good sources other then ebay? Thanks

You can try Craigslist (if you are in the US). I saw the 18" ones from $800 to $1400 (without TPMS) before (depend on how desperate the owner would like to get rid of them...)

From what I've seen, the 18" 5 twin spoke rims usually sell for around $1000-$1500. There are a few sets on ebay for $2500+ LOL, I'd be surprised if they got that for them. That is the only 18" option and there is no 19" option for OE wheels on a regular W204.

There are however, C63 18" and 19" wheels. The 18" C63 wheels typically go for $1500-$2200 or so lately. With the C63 wheels the prices vary due to the tire condition. Some owners really tear in to the rubber before the get new wheels, I know I would. Others get new wheels right away and so the tires have good tread depth and in turn sell for more.

Probably won't find many sets of the 19" C63 wheels for sale used.

Not too many options for used wheels other than ebay. You can check this and other forums. Craigslist is an option but I think you have to search each market separately so it's a pain in the ***. (<-- someone correct me if I'm wrong and show me the way!)

Good luck on your hunt!

Thanks for your replies. I just got off the phone with my MB dealer and he quoted me $165+tax per wheel for the 18" AMG. Not sure if those are the ones similar to the C63 but I am going in on Monday for my Service A so I will see what options they offer.

$165?? In what currency? Where do you live?

My (US) dealer was about a grand per wheel!

If you can the authentic AMG 18" 5 twin spoke wheels here for that price, I want to call your dealer and get a set!!!

Holy crap, that's an amazing price if accurate. I know it was $1000 option to get an upgrade from stock 17". Would be better to just part out your stocks for $700-1000 and use that money to buy a set of 18" with better tires. Something tells me that price isn't right though.

Like I said I am going in on Monday to exactly what wheels exactly are they talking about. I will ask for pictures and post them here if those are the ones.

Ok so I went to my dealership yesterday and the correct price for the amg wheels is not $165/wheel its actually around $900/wheel.
Sorry for the confusion.

VW and Audi owners as well. I like 'em, but they don't really go with the lines of W204s in my opinion.
