Father-in-law died in Feb having driven his new car for just 5 trips. It was a bit late in the season to try selling his winter wheels (from his previous car) for my mother-in-law, but the place he got them from advised this forum.
Fronts: 245/45 R 18 Dunlop winters with about 6mm remaining
Rears: 265/35 R 18 (on 9.5" in ET54 wheels) Dunlop winters 5mm remaining.
Details are a bit sketchy since I live over 200 miles away from my M-I-L and wheels, so I've trawled my emails from Feb to get this info, but I first enquired about fitments from the supplier who replied:
"Sorry to hear about your father in law.
I have managed to find his order and recognise the wheels he ordered.
Frustratingly the 212 model Mercedes only made the wheels that were suited to either the Saloon or the Estate. They aren't applicable for any other Mercedes.
What is the condition of the wheels?"
followed by:
"If it was something we sold regularly I'd have them off you but I'm afraid we just can't at the moment.
I really hope you manage to get everything sorted.
Kind regards
Justin"
They are "as new" and somewhere I have a photo, but at this stage I'm trying to gauge any interest before the winter season kicks off. Apologies if this contravenes any forum rules, but I'm a quattro driver (matching sizes required on all wheels) for 19 years and won't be lurking here other than to try and sell this set for my M-I-L. Consequently I won't reach the required 30 post count to enable receipt of PMs.
