Managed to get a brand new set of 17" Winter wheels with Dunlop Winter tyres on from a MB franchised dealer on ebay at a great price. Went to collect this afternoon and they are quite nice. I didn't realize but one of the alloys in the set had a small mark on it. The chap from parts went back in and swapped it for another new one before I could say anything. Great service even more considering I only paid £880. :D

They are the ones MB sells for all 204 C Class:

£880 for a set of 17's is a good price - the 16's I bought for my S203 last November from MB Ashford (last years winter wheels and tyres offer) cost £799, and at that time the 17's were £3-400 more.

I'm going to ruin your day though - I recently picked up a set of genuine MB 16's with as near as makes no odds brand new Kumho winter tyres, rims as close to new as you can get without them being new (one very small rim mark) for just under 1/4 of what you paid! Sometimes on eBay you get VERY lucky!

Very lucky indeed. I got lucky too on my last car ( BMW) when I got a set of nearly new 16" winter set for £200. They were steels with plastic covers and very good in the snow but looked daft. I couldn't have lived with steels in the c coupe though.
 
Just to advise :-)
They are forecasting snow in Eastern Europe for this month.
My mum already got winter tyres on her bmw back in Poland.
Winter madnest started already over there-tyre shops are very busy lol
No snow in UK last year......this year it may be a blast be aware he he
