Hi Guys,

I just got my C32 at the weekend and love it so far!

the original 17" amg wheels are getting ruff so im thinking i might aswell get a set of 18's for it.

i would like to stick to genuine merc/amg wheels.

which ones are are a hassle free straight swap?

Cheers

When you say genuine, do you mean OEM wheels or replica MB wheels? Power Wheels Pro is a forum sponsor and they have incredible replicas. I have the C63 style wheels from them and they've been great for over a year now.

Hey,

thanks for the replies

im in the UK and loads of the replicas have incorrect offsets etc and usually cant get them in staggered sets etc etc.

so id rather stick to oem merc/amg

that way they will fit straight on and have no issues clearing the front brakes etc etc

Try the turbine SL55 wheels. I think those look great on our C32. You'll just need to get different bolts.
