Rims for CLK 500?

Hello gentlemen,
I'm looking to buy 19" rims for my husband (forum member Gilderoy). I have found MB6 rims on eBay, with tires, for $1899. Can he remove his current wheels and just put those on without any hassle? ALSO, does anyone have other rim suggestions for a better price?... or perhaps even used?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

a link to the ebay ad would help. it'll fit depending on bolt pattern, offset and width. if you want a better price, try the classifed section of this forum.

How sweet! You might just want to give him the $$ and let him male his own decision. Avoid any problems.

Brabus reps are ok - is that your maxed budget?

You can try to find some wheels in this forum too. He would be even surprised if you buy HRE for him, even though they're used. To play safe, stick with Brabus, AMG and I would say HRE. What do others think?

Lowpost, you were running genuine Brabus rims like these one time, right?

Thank you for all of the information. My budget is $2000 or less, including tires. I have searched this forum for these wheels used, however they are not staggered. I don't know why they must be wider in the back.

I will continue my search...

yeah I had genuine 19's, then went down to 18's. and now amg reps. funny thing is these amg reps are stronger than both sets of my Brabus wheels.

look at my sig and in the group buy forum - these are amg reps and if you like these you can get these really cheap now. I think they're being sold for $1000 for a set so with tires easily under 2 grand.

OH NO!!! Unfortunately the Brabus replicas I posted a link to are all sold out. Does anyone know of a good website where I can get those Monoblock 6 wheels?

ALSO!!!!... what size tires would look best on his car? He is not lowering it. I reserched and found that 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 would be best? Your thoughts?

This is complicated.

Yes those tire sizes work well. My car is not lowered and running those size tires with no problems.

I found this:
http://www.usarim.com/mercedes-wheel...ng-p-1378.html
But this package is not staggered, but I'm sure they can get them staggered if you call them.

Good Luck!

I am waiting on my new set of wheels.

I went with Modulare wheels through wheel experts. Talk to Peter!

I cannot wait for them to get in.
