Does anybody have these wheels or ones that look like them on their w202? I am considering the 18 x 8.5 as I think 19's would be too big. What tires would you recommend also? Certain brand, etc. Places, or prices if you have them would help too. I know they are about a $1000 each so I might go with replicas instead. Thoughts/ pictures?

Luke: Your thoughts on this on a 99 C230? Do you carry them, I don't see them on tirerack? What about possible tires? Thanks.

.............I have 4 replica LM5's 18x8.5 with Toyo T1-s tires with about 15-20% thread wear. You can have them for $900 shipped.
