What to do..
Wifey dented the front passenger side wheel. Unfortunately it was beyond repair 
. So I'm torn between selling the remaining 3 and buy a whole new set or should I go to the stealership and pay $900 + 
for a replacement.
The rim is chrome 18" 10 split spoke, 20 spoke total.
Any advise...

do you have a picture of the style of wheel that you need? I'm assuming its this style: http://www.ebay.com/itm/MERCEDES-E35...sories&vxp=mtr
keep checking ebay, I'm sure you'll find a single used or refinished one for a replacement.

Used is an option... Just need to wait for the right size. 18x8.5 since its for the front.
If i cant find one by the weekend Ill just get a new set. Dont wanna drive around with a spare on it.
Thanks all...

I was just curious and did not really find many wheels on Ebay. Just in case I need to replace a wheel one day what is another good source for finding a used wheel. I have the 17TH 5 spoke standard wheels so I'm hoping if needed to find one it is not going to be too hard. Speaking of which, does anyone know if a standard 17" wheel will fut in the spare tire compartment?
