Tire Rack Disappointment
I wanted new wheels, so I went to tire rack.com, and followed the direction to find the wheels for my car and I got these:

Come to find out, they simply do not fit. The bolts do not line up. I was really pissed. I called them, and the guy assured me that they fit, yet they were right in front of my eyes, not fitting. I had to send them back.
I called Tire Rack again, and talked to someone else who told me that it is almost impossible to get after market wheels for my car. WHAT? Seriously? Dude, I know better![smash](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smashfreak.gif)
Any thoughts?

I bought two sets of wheels for the W204 from Tire Rack with no problems. Strange as Baker says maybe they sent the wrong wheels or they were mislabeled by the manufacturer.

I also bought a set of 17" aftermarket wheels from TireRack for use on track days and autoX. Everything worked out fine. Here is the URL.
