Stock C55 Rim Width
I've searched and seen both 7.5/8.5 and 8/8.5. What's the real widths? The reason I ask is I just had some new tires installed and the installer scratched up 1 front and 1 rear rim. They say they will replace them with reconditioned rims, I just want to make sure they don't stick me with 2 fronts or 2 rears and maintain proper/similar wheel widths front and rear. Anything else I should watch out for like non OEM replacements? Any way to tell the difference? Thanks!

Those are right specs as I have seen it on the back side of each of the wheels.
The front wheels are "one-offs" for the C55 to accomodate the wider track.

According to the Mercedes-AMG website the fronts are 7.5" width with ET30 offset; the rears are 8.5" width with ET34 offset.
