Question What is the stock rim size for 2004 C32 (front)

I have a bent front rim and can't find anyone to repair. There's one on ebay and it says it's a:

Wheel Size: 17 x 8.5


I need to replace what's on front. My tires are 225 front and 255 rear.

Thanks.

The stock front wheel is a 17x7.5 with a 37ET offset.

Some members here have put the 17x8.5 up front to de-stagger the car and improve handling.

If you are purchasing only one wheel, look for the 17x7.5

Do you have a picture of what that looks like?

You're kidding right? This is what a C32 wheel looks like:


Are you really asking what a de-stagger looks like? If so, do a search on profiles for "splinter" and "awdman". They both de-staggered their cars.
