Hey guys,
So recently my left rear Brabus (Replica) 19x9.5 ET35 rims cracked and buckled on my W211 - I live in Sydney, Australia and I cannot find a local vendor.

I know this is a longshot - but does anyone have either 1x or a set 2x of these rim specifications available and willing to ship to Australia?

I'm currently driving on my spare and really don't want to have to resort to getting a brand new set of different rims i love these monoblock vis...

If anyone can help please message me ASAP or email me at phytaz@hotmail.com

hey mate! Do you have photos? Where exactly in Sydney are you? Try Omar at Falkner Wheels. 1300398973. they have a wide selection of wheels there and he might be able to help you out. Too expensive to have wheels shipped from America.

or you can always go to Tempe Tyres.

Any luck? Love to hear some feedback from Temp tyres

I drive 2003 W211 E240 ... and need to upgrade my OEM wheels as I noticed two small cracks...

Tempe Tyres is great! Wide selection and great price, not to mention friendly staff.

I'm not too technical with rims size and offset

But my car 2003 E240 (W211) still has OEM wheels 225/55/16.
I think it's 16x7.5 ?

I was wondering if i can upgrade to 18x8.5 without any problems ? or my car will only allow me to upgrade it 17x8 ?

Thanks

I reckon you'll be fine mate. I have an 03 e320 myself and I have 20's on her. I think it'll depend on the offset more than the size.

Just in case, I am in Phoenix AZ and headed to Sydney in two weeks. I think a wheel could count as an extra piece of luggage at $50. Pretty cheap if you find one around here.

beejAMG

Thats really cheap Viper! One of my mates just came back from LA late last year with a set of rims, cost him US$500 to check it in!

Would be true on a set and if each was over the limit on size or weight. A normal piece of luggage which is typically a case of wine for me is $50.
