My C43 needs tires real bad, I don't want to invest in new 17" tires because I want to go with the 18" 210 wheels, any ideas where I can find some? I am willing to pay the dough for some nice ones. Thanks.

I recently saw a set of real ones sell on Ebay for about 350+shipping. This was less than two weeks ago. Keep your eyes peeled on there and I'm sure you can find something

Thanks Paul, I check ebay everyday, I was to late for that deal though.

This one looks promising. Anyone ever deal with them?

Another option - VWVortex's wheel and tire classifieds section. I surf over there to check up. Those Dub guys are nuts with wheels. They have a 5x112 specific section! There are frequently genuine AMG or replicas for sale there, sometimes new ones from vendors, sometimes used.

I'd like to do the same and snag a set of 210 E55 wheels, genuine or replica too. Or perhaps the AMG 801 style from these guys:

I called Wheels and Caps yesterday and left a message, no call back today. In my experience this doesn't give me warm and fuzzys to do business with them, anyone have a different experience?

Id keep the search goin for some OEM AMGs. AMG reps just look stupid on a true AMG. Plus a set of used OEMs cost less than new crappy made reps.
Classifieds on all the benz sites, craigslist.org, plus vwvortex 5X112 section as mentioned is a great plus to look.

Oh yeah, the S2000 crowd, and lots of Nissan fans too, get wheels from rbwheels.com. Not a lot of 5x112, but right now I think they have a few sets of AMG wheels, but they tend to be older styles or 17s.

I agree, with more thought I will be looking for the OEM W210 wheels, I am just impatient as I need tires now!
