Cracked wheel, looking for factory replacement
 
As stated I have a cracked rear wheel and looking for online recommendations or local to houston to get a factory replacement besides spending a fortune at dealership.

I found these online that seem to be a good price and they both say they fit my year yet one is 17x8.5 and one is 17x7.5. How do I know which one I need? After I purchase will any tire place just switch wheels for me? I've never in my life have had a cracked wheel before just flat tires so this is new to me. Any help much appreciated.

Unfortunately, there are a number of reports of cracked rims. Yes, any tire shop can swap wheels for you (they will move the tire pressure sensors from on the old wheels to the new wheels too).

My C300 sport has staggered wheels -- 17 x 7.5 in front and 17 x 8.5 in rear.

If you want a full set for a reasonable price, I have some FS :D

AH! Okay, i knew I had staggered tires front and rear I didn't put the two together. Thank you so much for the info.

$300 is a hella deal but I got a set already with some minor scuffs, from the previous owner of course. :)

Again, thanks for the info. That site seems to be legit and seems like a good price after looking around.

Yeah, I agree. It's hard to find OEM wheels for a decent price.
