FS: 4 Authentic 17" AMG C32 wheels with Michelin PS2's

I have a complete set (4) of AMG split spoke wheels AND tires from my '02 C32. The wheels are in good/very good condition and the tires have about 50-65% tread left on them (were driven for 10K of mainly highway miles). Tires are Michelin Pilot Sport II (PS2) 's and are 225/45/17 in the front and 245/40/17 in the rear.

Wheels are in good/very good condition due to a few scratches or minor curb rash. Wheels are true and the cosmetic imperfections are not major and are barely noticeable 5 feet away from the car. The wheel with the worst damage doesn't have any curb rash but does look like someone had dropped it on it's face (see picture for details). As a set, I'd give it a 8.0 rating out of 10. These would look great on any Mercedes W203 sedan (C230, C240 or C320), or most any other Mercedes vehicle. Check with your dealer for compatibility.

Unfortunately, one of the rear tires got part of a razor blade in it and has been removed. There is some slight sidewall damage to this tire as I drove to the gas station around the corner from my house with no air in the tire. Had I known that I had a flat, I wouldn't have kept driving. The razor blade has been taken out of the tire and the tire does not leak air. I have been driving on it for at least 700 miles with no problems. You can see the minor sidewall damage in the pictures (or e-mail me for more detailed pics if you can't see it). I don't recommend driving on this tire for long but please plan on replacing it (it does NOT leak air though and the tread is good). I am not liable for any performance or safety issues with this tire or any part of this wheel/tire set, buyer takes full responsibility (as with any used wheel or tire from most anyone).

My asking price is $1,000 and considering that some people are asking this much or more for some stock C230 rims (no tires), this is a bargain. Mine are authentic AMG's, come with center caps and also come with 3 very usable tires.
Buyer pays for exact shipping rates.
Once again, asking price is $1,000 and I am open to offers. Let me know if you want more detailed pics. Local pickup available in Daly City, CA.
Thanks for looking!

Most definitely they'll fit your C55

however, keep in mind that your C55 came with 18"s and these are 17"s. These would work out great as a second set of wheels/tires, or use one as a spare or use the entire set for the track.

I might be wrong, but I don't think 17" wheels will clear the front brakes on a C55.

Aren't they the same brakes? I could have sworn that I read that somewhere. I know that standard C class (C230, C240, C320) wheels won't fit the C32/C55 but I've never heard of C32 wheels not being able to clear the C55 brakes.

I just checked the specs on mbusa.com for the C55 and compared it to the specs listed on c32life.com and yes, the C32 and C55 brakes are the exact same size. 13.6" in the front and 11.8" in the rear.
