First post -great car but don't like the wheels!

[gobiman]

Just purchased a 2007 500 CLK convertible in tanzanite blue so this is my first post on the forum. I have to say that I'm delighted with it. Only thing I don't like is the wheels (standard 17 s with 9 ? spokes). I'm looking to change.
I like the 18 inch AMG 5 spoke design on the CLK55.
Am I right in assuming that these will fit on the 500 with no issues?
Any advice gratefully received and also where might be a good place to find a set without paying full retail.
Thanks in advance.

See the link for a fitting chart and you can also view all the wheels that will fit a CLK on the site. Alloy Wheels Direct Ltd | Fitting Chart Index

Have a look at the classifieds on here and ebay for alloys.

Thanks - just had a look on the classifieds on here and , to my surprise (having scoured ebay this morning)there is a member selling what I'm looking for -Dennisbj.
As a new boy I can't reply to the ad. Perhaps if some kind soul could alert him to this thread I'd be very grateful.
Thanks

He is and they still seem to be for sale. You cant reply to adverts you have to PM the seller but you dont have enough posts to PM. I will PM him for you and tell him to look at this thread.

Sorry I thought you meant dennisbj on Ebay.

Having read again I see what you meant!

Looks like you found each other anyway

Hi and welcome to the forum.

 

[gobiman]

Very helpful and I appreciate all the replies.
Now I'm an owner I will try to start giving as well as taking.
