I posted in the Marketplace, but I thought I'd try here as well. I'm looking for a set of used 17" or 18" wheels for my 2008 E350. Ideally I'd like another set of the 20-spoke sport package wheels but I also like the 17" fat 5 spoke from the older E500's. I'm open to other styles as well, but I prefer OEM wheels over replicas. Looking to spend 600US/800CAN. I'm in Eastern Ontario but can easily make a trip to the GTA to pick up.

makesure you get OEM not replicas

I bought a set of 18" SL oem wheels - same as W211 E55 wheels but with a more agressive offset. Didn't end up using them on my car.

Those look great, the darker grey will look good on my black car. How much do you want for them?

Well here's what I got:

2 front wheels in 18 X 8.5" ET35 with 2 Bridgestone Turanza tires in 255/40R18 w/ only 2000km. And 2 rear wheels in 18 X 9.5" ET30 with no tires.

For a fellow forum member, I'd let the kit go for 1k. If and when I decide to sell them, I'll probably put them up for 12-1300$.

As long as you can handle shipping and having them picked up, I can pack them up and do 900$ if you want. Bellow that I think I'll just store them.

Where in Quebec are you located?

lockeed

Gaspé, I'm way out there. (eastern Quebec)

i'll have to check into how much it'll cost to ship and I'll let you know.

lockeed

Depending on where you are, the bus might be an option. If not, I have a business account with Canada post, I could always check, I assume it would cost about 30-40$-per wheel.

Andre91

I deal with UPS and Canpar quite a bit, but if you could check Canada Post as well that would be great.

lockeed

Just did a quote, we're looking at about 35$ for the wheel alone, and 42$ for the wheel and tire. So about 155$ shipping. I can round it out to 1050$ if you want and I'll take care of it, and if UPS or bus is cheaper, you're call. Let me know.

Andre91

That sounds reasonable, I ran a quote with Canpar and Greyhound and both are more expensive.

Would you be able to send me pictures of the other three wheels, and the back showing the part number? Do you know if they've ever been repaired?

lockeed

I'll try to go and get them out of the shop tomorrow and send you pictures by the end of the day. Can't promise anything, worst case, the day after tomorrow. I don't think you'll be disappointed, they're not mint but they're in great shape and the tires are really good as well.

Andre91

Perfect, thanks a lot.

lockeed

Here's the pictures. I checked them out thoroughly this time and there's no apparent repair whatsoever. They're good solid wheels and they look great. These will look awesome on any W211, especially with fatter tires, the agressive offset will fill out the fender quite nicely.

Looks good to me... Guess we can sort out shipping and payment via PM?
