Scratched wheel on CL55....question

Scraped up the right front wheel on the CL. It's the twin spoke AMG's. Anyone know where I can get a replacement cheaper than the dealer?

try transwheel in elk grove village illinois, they also have a warehouse in indiana, you may have to go through a dealer, but if the wheel is repairable they will fix it just as good as new, if you have any problems lmk.

You can get the wheel reapired as the abover poster stated. IF you need to buy a new wheel for some reason however, Tire Rack has them for $449.00 ...

go on line to www.wheeelcollision.com
they can repair any wheel. simply send it to them and they will repair and return as good or better than new.
they just don't fix scratches they can completely re-do a wheel to meet factory specs.
they stock original replacement wheels that have been repaired.
in fact you could purchase a repaired one from them and they would give you credit on your wheel.
i bought 4 clk320 7 spoke from them for $135 each. i was going to use them for snows but they are flawless so i will use them for my summer wheels and my originals for the snows.

Guys thanks for the replies. Adam is that for the new twin spoke AMG wheels from Tire Rack? I'm not finding them on their site.

Yes. Enter your vehicle info on their page under wheels and you will be presented with a bunch of wheels that will fit your car. Scroll through the wheels and you will find the AMG Double Spokes on the list.

Or, just call Luke at Tire Rack and he will help you.

Scratched rims

I nicked up two of my rims on my '04 S55, the dealer refinished them both in about 5 hours. They also came out great. I think you could probably just get the rim refinished. I bought an extra rim before I refinished mine but it is a rear not a front. DH

I have never liked the side badging. I personally find it cheap and tacky. It breaks up the clean lines and after time the individually letters in the badging start to rotate and look messed up.

Sooooo... The first day I had the car, out came the dental floss and I removed the badges.

I bought my AMG 19" double spokes from Ernie's Alloys in Opa Locka, FLorida for alot less than tire rack. I traded in my stock turbines for them. Ernie will take care of you....if you have seen his warehouse you can tell he has very little overhead so he can sell for great prices.
