Does anyone have a source for good used Mercedes wheels, I had some tires tires mounted yesterday, and one of my wheels is bent, not too bad they were able to balance them fine, however the wheel looks like hell the clearcoat is pealing and it is generally a mess, It is the standard 8 whole 7.5 x 15inc bright metal wheel. There us to be a company that advertized in The STAR which exchanged your wheels for chromed ones of the same price for around $300 I think. Unique part was they sent you the chromed wheels, and you returned you old wheels and I think the postage was prepaid on the returns, I think they were around the Washington DC area, anyone know of this company

Thanks,:) :) :)

What about your spare tire? You can change it to that one
and make the scratched up one your spare.

The spare wheel is not the same as the "regular wheel". It is a full size tire, but has only 5 spokes and shouldn't be driven over 500 miles stamped on it!

Try 1-977 2Detroit. Talk to Rob or Mike, they might have one for you.
