Stock E55 wheels trashed- help!

So my 18" E55 OEM wheels have bit the dust- one is cracked and another has been straightened so many times it can't be repaired. Looks like I'm back to square one for wheels. A few questions:





Does anyone have any stock E55 wheels for sale?

Are there other OEM Benz wheels that will fit on the E55- I appreciate offset and bolt pattern but wasn't sure what would clear the brakes.

I'd prefer 18s but may go 19s. Would the car look like a covered wagon with 19s if I didn't lower it?

Any good aftermarket wheels that aren't $4k? Saw the Sparco DRS in bronze which would look good, but it would be an 8" square setup and I'm not sure thats enough wheel/tire out back.



Thanks!

I think any AMG 18" wheels from 2003 to 2009 will fit. But not normal MB cars with the non-existent "AMG package"

Emphasize "*think*"

I'm on mobile, so don't know for certain if your profile shows your location. I live west of Seattle and saw a set of staggered 18" CLS wheels. with tires, for $600.

I know he got the rims he needed but I'm looking for 1 or a rear set for the same car.

I'd be thankful if you have any leads.
