2008 CLS 320 CDI and 2006 B200 CDI
Have a buckled front wheel on my new to me 2008 CLS 320cdi and cant find a replacement anywhere. According to my build sheet that came with the car its fitted with 18 inch 8.5 J ET25 rims all round. All the sites ive checked only seem to have rear wheels ET 18 or ET 28 fronts. Im struggling to find any wheels of this type thinking ill have to get a whole new set.

Look at the inside of your front wheel and check the Part number. Don't worry what the build sheet. The wheels may have been changed at some point.
It should read A219 401 2702.
If that matches, these are your wheels. A front one is £349 49.
 
Most decent wheel refurbishers can deal with issues like this - wouldn’t be as expensive as a new wheel (or set of!) :)

Unfortanly the wheel has had cracks welded and refurbishers wont repair a buckled wheel if its had cracks.

Yeah to see gonna have to take the wheel of the car think its a good idea to check the ET but i do know they are the original wheels
 
Armed with the part number, you could also see if you could buy a used single from eBay, and get that and your three all powder coated hyper silver?

Sorry, wasn’t aware that it was cracked as well as buckled.

Perhaps look for a used set on eBay - or try one of the breakers - Dronsfields, MSL, Mercman etc?
