I have a 96' C36 and my 17 in rims are little on the worn side and would like to replace with newer ones. This is style I have right now:

I just bought new tires, so I am just looking at a replacement or something that can use the same tires (245/40/r17 & 225/45/r17). I have looked on ebay, but they are extremely expensive. Any suggestion would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Josh J.

How bad are your rims? If you like them you can refinish them for way less. Return them to like new!
Is it still possible if some of the shell is flaking off especially around the lug nut holes. Also, there is some curb rash on the edge of the rim, is that amendable?

If they can refinish mine after my crash, then that should be easy. Look up a nearby shop that can do it. Ask local body shops who resurfaces rims for them

Check out Wheels America - they can refinish them like new. Some local places do it as well. Our local MB dealer will do each wheel for around $100 - steep but cheaper than new wheels
