Mercedes announces a new collection of wheels
It's time to say goodbye to normal street shoes and start wearing trendy sneakers again – footwear fashion for spring has a chic and sporty air to it. And the same is true of cars when the time comes to switch back to summer tyres: attractive...
Hi I am new to the forum. I have a 54 plate SL55 AMG. I have just bought myself the Renntech V2 lowering module. I currently have the 18" turbine alloys, but I am looking to change them to 20".
Can anyone recommend whether I should go for 19s or 20s? I want the real beefy staggered look, so...
There are a few companies around that offer an exchange service on refurbished alloy wheels.
Companies such as fa wheels in London, offer a refurb set of four, on an exchange basis, for around the £350 mark, which seems like a good deal to me?
Has anyone used a company like this or have any...
Hey all - I have upgraded my wheels so my Lorinser 18" alloys and tyres are for sale.
They are ET44 18" 8J all around wrapped in 245/40/17 Triangle (wtf!) tyres which have done about 2,000km, so practically brand new. Not my tyre choice but shod in these when the car came in from Japan...
I have a full set of 4x brand new OEM 16” MB Electra alloy wheels for the W203/S203/C203. The alloy wheels are still in their original packaging boxes and have never been used. The wheels are exactly the same as the shown in the two pics below.
They are boxed and brand new.
Spec is as per...
Hi everyone. I have a set of four Bundt/ mex hat type alloy wheels going spare, taken from a W123. I had intended to use these as the summer wheels for my 230 E, but never got round to it. I believe they also fit many other models from the same era.
Fitted with tyres (not road legal) that...
I am looking for an alloy wheel as my back one has a crack from getting it repaired. It's a c32 amg 5 twin spoke alloy 18". Depending on the price I might be prepared to buy 4 if you are selling them.
Regards,
Alan.
Had some issue with a puncture last week. Just been out to get some tyres and the alloy had a huge crack. Not sure if this was the result of me driving 2 miles to get off the motorway or was cracked weeks before as it was constantly losing pressure.
Can the below be repaired?
And i am not...
I hit a pothole last week and the day after the tyre warning light came on. I topped up the air and again a day later the warning came on. I'm hoping that it's the tyre that's damaged but I've got a niggling thought that the alloy is damaged and will need replacing.
Any idea how much a new...
So I would like to put the original AMGs back onto my car, but they are in dire condition and need a stripdown and new powder coat / re-spray.
Can anyone on here recommend somewhere that isn't too expensive.
I'm thinking about City Powder Coating in Brum. at £30 a wheel for a same day service...
Hi there SLK R172drivers, have any of you fitted aftermarket alloy wheels on your vehicle and what wheel width/offsets did you go for?
The factory 18inch wheels are 7.5 ET42 front and 8.5 ET36 rear. I can easily find plenty of wheels to replace the rears with an ET35 but I cant seem to find...
Does anyone know of a good wheel reconditioned in the Colchester area? My wheels on my c250 (2012) are badly pitted. Is this a common problem with these wheels?
Have now had 4 new B rated tyres fitted & had my wheels balanced & my car drives beautifully now.
Many thanks to helgi33, AMGeed & Abb whose advice saved me thousands as my garage said that I needed new wheels.
It's great to have somewhere like this forum to ask questions when you are unsure...
Can somebody please help me. I have a Mercedes W211 E220 2006 & I have just been told by my garage that my alloy wheels are aftermarket & they don't fit properly causing vibration at 60+. The garage said the offset was wrong.
Is their anything that can be done to make them fit?
Is it...
