Wondering, the wheels shown above in my picture. Are these optional for 2010? I've seen many other sports and they don't have these wheels. Just wondering.

LandSeaAir

Nope, those are standard for 2010 and 2011, different wheels on the 08 and 09s, probably what you've been seeing.

Jason B

So you are saying if it's a 2010-2011 C300 sport, it has those exact 17's?

DonjuanOriginal

I have an 08 c300 same wheels, lots of C300's in Canada have these same 17" wheels and other years up to 2011. Many regions/countries have different wheel options.

Jason B

Interesting. It just makes me wonder if there offered two different styles of 17's for those years.

DonjuanOriginal

They had 3 different styles in 17" a 6 spoke and a 7 spoke. Plus the one in the original Pic a 5 spoke. The 08 model had just the 5 spoke. The 6 and 7 spoke started in 09.

Ok, I was looking through the a 2010 PDF brochure, and they don't give much detail and don't mention any of the wheels. Were any of those 17" anymore $ than the other 17's? Seems funny that they had that many wheel choices.

DonjuanOriginal

These options for wheels are Canadian based. From my research Mbusa I think had a limited Model to wheel selection. IDK know for a fact though. 2012 in Canada is when they offered different wheel options.

LandSeaAir

Yeah those wheel options stated above must be for Canada Mercedes.

I'm almost positive that in the US those 5 spoke wheels that Jason posted a pic of were the standard wheels in 2010 and 2011. The only other wheel option in the US for 2010 and 2011 were the upgraded 18" AMGs:



For 2008 and 2009, these were the standard 17" wheels:



So for 2008-11 W204 there were only three factory wheels that could be installed on US cars.

for US it was the base split 7 spoke 17", the base wide 5 stars in 17", the AMG 7 spoke 17" wheels, and the AMG split 5 stars in 18". thats all Ive ever seen in the US cars i think.

LandSeaAir

I did forget those, the ones that came standard on the C350.

C350 was a split 6 spoke

The wheels on the black car are for the Sport model since the Lux wheels (17X7) were even uglier. I use mine for my winter tires. Which i am taking a short break from swapping right now.

Memphis1

is there a link to all MB wheels?

RLE

The wheels on the black car were on the 2012 C350 that was crushed by the light rail train in downtown L.A. last Sunday. Saw it on the national news.

Jason B

The wheels on the black one shone above on the lot were pre 2010 wheels it seems.

If the wheel I orginally posted comes on 2010's and 2011's, this one seems to be another one for 2011:

I have the 18" AMG rims (above on the red Merc) on my 2009 C350.

C300Sport

Looks like the C300 Luxury model wheel.

Jason B

Ahh, ok. I think you are right.

RLE

Correct. My 2008 Lux came with these and only these wheels. Removed before delivery.
