Looking for C450 Five spoke replacement

Black 5 spoke 18 x 7.5.
Apologies if this is the wrong place. I would consider buying the set if reasonably priced.




Thanks,

If you're looking for just 1 single wheel, I'd check ebay or some of the refurb websites.

If you're interested in an excellent condition set of 4, I have these on my car right now, and I've been looking for 19s instead. Where are you located?

Here are the MBWorld Marketplace links as well: https://mbworld.org/forums/market/ and https://mbworld.org/forums/market/pa...sid%5B0%5D=s20 <-- you can try posting a Want to Buy (WTB) thread there.

Hey thanks DLinddd. I'm in Southern Oregon. Yeah, I don't know about the refurbished route. I've heard that welding doesn't really hold up. There just are not a lot of options out there. I appreciate the advice though. BTW, I've had 19in rims on my car for a while and loved them. https://mbworld.org/forums/c450-c43-...ml#post7396538 Unfortunately, I bent a rim and they no longer make the wheel. DOH!

eBay buy a refurbished. They discontinued the rim already ? I kinda doubt that. Check dealer parts counter or online genuine mb parts.

They did NOT discontinue this wheel. Still plenty of vehicles out there with them. Including mine ! I was also thinking of selling my set of these 18" to go to 19"s.
Part number for that exact front wheel in that size with the black accents is # 205.401.4800.7X23

Sorry, what I meant was they discontinued the after market rims I currently have on the car. No, they still make the AMG rims, they just want $1,300 for ONE. It seems excessive.

Thanks Star4life. I'm going with these in gunmetal. https://www.mandruswheels.com/stirli...des-wheels.php
I've heard good things about Mandrus and four of these is about the price of one new AMG wheel. The crap part about staggered wheels, which I love the look of, is that if you want to keep a spare you need to have one for both the front and the back,

you can just keep a front spare as it should fit the rear as well as long as tire diameters are close. it would be fine for short duration to get home or to a shop
