Important Question about E320 wheels!
Hello everyone! I need your help.
I need new tires for my 2000 E320 (non-sport), but I also would like to get new alloys/wheels for the car.
Is it possible to somehow get the "sport option" wheels? Does Mercedes or some other company sell these wheels that the e-class sport models came with? I like them more than any other wheel available for the E-Class. (I'm only sorry i didn't purchase them at the time that i got the car!!!)
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks again!

an import
You can purchase these wheels from your dealer. Any OEM they can always order them for you, however, if you are going to spend money on new wheels why stay with OEM?? There are so many nice options to choose from that look better than OEM IMO. Even an AMG would be better than a stock 'Sport' wheel.
Check out Tire Rack for new wheels and tires.

That original factory wheel from the dealer will also be very expensive, probably over $400 each. If you have your heart set on that wheel and dealer price is too high I suggust buying some guaranteed used or take-off wheels. IMHO, spending that much money for new rims and tires, go with some AMG's.

Yeah, your right. I should just go for the AMG wheels if the "sport option" wheels are going to be over $400 each. The AMG's are equally as nice. But, I will ask the dealer about the "sport wheels."
Also: Where is the best place to buy new performance tires? www.tirerack.com? I need all-season tires, but should i get very high performance ones, or just performance? Any thoughts would be appreciated.
