17" Replacement Rims & Center Caps
Hi all,
I was looking for some wheels to replace those bulky base 2010 17" ones (I want to keep my tires, so I dont think I want to go to 18"). Now I was looking for an affordable replacement and I think I like the Moda MD12's at TireRack. However when I asked the TireRack guy, he said that Benz center caps wouldn't fit on it, and he went on saying that Benz center caps wouldn't fit on most aftermarket wheels.
Needless to say, I think he's wrong, I really want the Benz center caps. Anyone have any input? Also I'd love some tips on finding some good wheels in general, as you can tell I'm a fan of machined face with black accents.

I cant speak to all aftermarket wheels but I have TSW Rivage that were from Discount Tire on my C and the stock MBZ enter caps work fine, I swapped mine for a set of black replacements I bought but they are all the same size.
I did see a tread on here a while ago about someone having to use a little silicon on their caps to make them work...
