Need set of Wims /w tires...

Need to upgrade the set on my mom's CDI. Her new 06 came with the stock 16's and she dosen't like them. I thought I would be a good son and buy her a set. She is located inb south FL and I am looking for a set of 17's or 18's for her. Drop off or delivery to 33071. Wanna get her something nice for he holidays as my Dad ust bought her the Kleemann module for her.


Whatcha got??

There are other 16-in designs, which would be easier and cheaper.

17 accomplishes nothing positive for a CDI.

She wants 17's or 18's so thats what she will get. It will make her happy, that accomplishes alot in my eyes.

One of the things I bought my mom was a big box of pwalines. She's pretty old now, living in a group assisted living home, and simple pleasures are the things that make the biggest impression on her.

Happy Holidays to all!!

I was going to say that wims was shortened for Wimminz until I saw it was for your mom.

Are you looking for OEM 17-18" for aftermarket?

How about the 18" Sport Package wheels?

Those are expensive. I saw a set on ebaymotors for several grand.

Get her some E500 17s (or 18s? Forgot) or some replicas.

RE:Rims

I have a set of take off 17 inch rims and the OEM Michelin HXMXM tires from my 05 appearance package E500. I was not looking to sell them, but they are taking up useful space in the attic. I took them off this Spring with 4100 miles, they are 99.5% perfect with no curb rash or any type of damage. I don't have a pic on this system, but they are the same style as 211 Ryda's sig pic a couple of posts up. If you have interest, send me a PM, if not, good luck with your search.
