Any C55 rims/tires for sale out there???
I'm trying to find a set of 18" rims and tires for my new ride, and the C55 is on the short list. Anyone upgrade and want to sell theirs??? Send a PM or e-mail if you want to slafara@nies.com I'm located in St. Louis, MO if that makes any difference.

Can you please post a pic of your 18"s????? Pretty please! I've been trying to find one as I've been told that the rear rims have the same size lip as the fronts, even though they are wider, and I really would like to see how they look on the car. I was ready to order the 19" Bremmas but I'm concerned how the streets here will treat them.
May I ask where you got them?? You can send me a PM if you don't want to post here. Thanks!!!!

I think they look better than the OEM AMG C55 wheels.
I paid $190 each.

Can you post some pics of your car with that set of wheels?
Thanks

I don't have a camera for posting.
I got 18x8 TSW Bremmas all four corners.
That way I can rotate (may main reason for buying)
There is no lip, but still looks great.
Offset is 32 front and back
They also make 18x9
You can stagger the tire size on 18 x 8:
225-40-18 fr
245(255)-35-18 r
See them at tires dot com.

NY C32,
tried PM'ing you but it would not let me. I have a question for you...
Did you have any problems with rubbing in the front, primarily on the under fender panel. I have 18x8.5's in the front and they are rubbbing the front under fender panel. any insight on this.
BTW, my car is an 02 C32

I currently have 18x8 and don't have any rubbing in the front. I had 19x8.5 but they didn't rub either so I'm not sure what I can tell you. I have my car lowered on Vogtlandts and still don't have a problem.

probation?!?!?!? Who'd you F? ![Wink](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/wink.gif)
thanks for the input. I am going to heat the abs plastic up and try to create more room on the underpanel.
If that does not work, I am going to get new wheels.

Got the set from Neal at Euroteck. He's got the best prices and very easy to deal with.
