Where can I buy a single 17" 'Fat-Five' for an E500?
Can't afford the whole nut to upgrade all my wheels/tires, but I need to replace a wheel that will not balance.
17" Fat Five spokes painted
Anyone know where I can get one for less than the dealer? Thanks!

How about this site: http://www.finishlinewheels.com/MERC...TYPE+211/2006/
I have no experience with this site or any affiliation.

Thanks Eurotrash! I'll do some research on these sites. They seem too good to be true. Ever hear of wheelsamerica.com?

Finishlinewheels had some mixed reviews. They sell refurbished OEM wheels.
I went with Wheels America. Only $20 more than finishline and they seem to be more reputable from what I read. They also sell refurbished OEM wheels. Chose them because they have a distributor in Miami. Worst case, I can drive over there and give them hell.
Thanks for your help!

Don't know if you have Discount Tire in your area, but they sell used OEM wheels.
When my wheel cracked last year, I went there looking for one. They had them available. And I'd presume they'd spin/balance it before selling it to you.
