What do you guys think of these rims?

I have a black 2008 C300. You think these would look good on it? If so where could I find MB center caps?

Thanks in advance.

 

Oops! This link appears broken.

 

Try now, sorry.

 

look pretty sweet... look very close to HRE 540R rims. look good !

 

looks very nice.. but should go with 19 instead..

 

They look great but won't fit. The offset is too low.Should be a minimum of 40mm.
Sorry

 

Is 40 mm the perfect off set? Also if I did go with 19", what impact does that have on the suspension since I would have to get thinner tires?

Thanks for all your replies.

 

i currently have 20s on my car and my car drives fine... doesnt even rub!! the tire size im running is 225/35/20 in the front and 245/45/20 in the back...

 

To each his own I think the 5 twin spoke 18 amg's are perfect for this car... but your wheels look good.

 

Any pic?

 

isnt this real cheap?

Thats not the rims that was posted by the OP

 

Since these won't fit, I'll probably go with the AMG's then. I do agree with you they look nice. Thanks again for the replies.

 

I like 'em, but I think the W204 is angular for that style of wheel. And thos who said the offset is wrong, are correct. They won't work.

 

I've been waiting for a good set of rims too...... i was thinking HRE but then i found these.....

let me know what you think, i personally like them better than the HRE's.










I plan on calling them today to find if they will fit my car. They are 19's but gotta research the offset and stuff, I'll let you know how it turns out and how much...... what's your take, have you heard of VMR and if so how's the reliability of the rims/company?

 

VMR are made by Velocity who make reps, but they're one of the better replica wheel manufacturers out there. You're not going to get super high quality and durability obviously, but for those on a budget and looking for design styles of high end wheel brands, it's a good choice.

 

Thanks bro! I knew you would know all about this kinda stuff. much appreciated!

 

These are VMR V710 (BMW E46 M3 CSL rep) and they are made to fit on BMW E46 or E90 only. They won't fit in our cars, the offset is too low. Here is the spec and color available (same on 19"),

18x8.5 ET20 Coming Soon
18x8.5 ET35 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal
18x9.5 ET22 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal
18x9.5 ET33 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal
18x9.5 ET45 Hyper Silver / Matte Black / Gunmetal

 

seems like those mesh rims are tha 'in' thing these days... and they do look nice...

but i will again post this in the hopes that someone knows where i can get em for our car... need these.


im goin for a stealth look... and i dont need these specifically... but anything that is similar... im lookin all over the web and nothing... these are so simple it's weird.

 

Not really the "in" thing, but BMW people tends to like BBS style rims.

 

Here are a few that are relatively similar. Most come custom powercoated to whatever color you want, or you can always take them to get powercoated yourself.

IForged Avus


IForged Astra


HRE 545


DPE ST-5


KINESIS K59R


Vellano VSK

 

My LAWD!...

good lookin AZN... tryin to stay away from any extra expenses but if it must be done then ill find out about powder coat pricing...

those DPE ST-5's are sick.

thanks again.

 

and yes as for VMR they said that the center bore is too small. like 55.7 where we have a 66.6 bore or something like that (TBH when he said they wont fit i kinda stopped paying attention) He also said that Merx also are longer for some reason. what do you guys suggest for a 19???

 

That's right. Also forgot to mention, those bolt patterns are 120 (for BMW), while Mercedes and Audi are 112.
