need some help

i just picked up a 05 mercedes c230 sports sedan and im having trouble finding some good parts websites. i know there are a couple benz guys on this forum so i thought you guys could point me in the right direction. especially on wheels. i dont know where to look for 5x112 lug pattern wheels.

You are probably going to have to custom order your wheels with 5x112 bolt pattern.  On the plus side you can customize your offsets at the same time to match your car.  Most shops won't stock that bolt pattern, and if they do it's probably not the offsets you want.   What kind of wheels were you thinking of?   elpresidente might be able to help you, his wife has that same car.

^definately going to need to custom order your wheels, but the good news is that you can get them to custom fit your ride. so, do your resarch on sizes and offsets that will fit your ride and plans because it would be best to get it right the first time.

mymbonline.com you can buy alot of stuff of the guys on the forums and they have alot of vendors on there and could probably help you out .

thanks for the responses guys. the problem with wheels is that since im still in college and dont have the greatest job in the world. i have to stay kinda cheap on the wheels. i ahve seen some nice brabus replicas that are +35 offset 18x8 front and 18x9 rear. and they are under a 1000 bux which is all i can really afford. i wish i could afford better wheels because i found a pic online of a car like mine with a set of MAE's and they looked freaking sick! but that to baller for this college kid. haha. i really wanna find a decently priced supercharger pulley kit just to hear it whine a lil louder. ricer i know but its fun. lolz. but thanks for your help guys

you can find nice and REAL used wheels for under $1,000.  also, if you want to hear the supercharger whine just install an intake.  but trust me, it will get really annoying really fast.

ryhi. ive been trying to find an actual intake system but from what ive been reading no one makes one. only the k&n drop in filter. and also what are some good website for used wheels with 5x112 lug pattern. i cant find any on memorfab or takumiproject.

ebay

mymbonline.com (This site is into modifying w203s)
mbworld.org (more of a tech site with a huge w203 members)
benzworld.org
6speedonline.com (pretty sick mercedes on this site)
 
Why not try to save up some money and purchase a used clean set of wheels from another member on the other forum. Those ebay wheels are ok but trust me a majority of ebay owners regret buying them in the first place.

im on all those other websites already. i think thats what im gunna do is just save up and try to get some wheels. i know i wont be able to get custom ordered works or anything but i know i can get something better than the ebay wheels. 5X112 wheels are just hard to come by. haha. but everything will work out in the end.

I got 2 set of wheel from my w203, both 19's. Authentic Brabus MonoBlock 6 and LowenHart BR5. PM me if you're still in the market for used wheels.

I don't know how I missed this post..haha, maybe since the subject didn't describe much.  If you still need some help, just hit me up.

Looks like you found some good sources so far definitely hit these guys up hell were all on budgets now so dont feel bad...I do recommend you get some good wheels not replicas because in the end you wont be satisfied go the used route Im sure you can find something nice and in your price range...

post some pics man. that would be nice first

I had the same problem with my 740i (5x120) but I just googled the name of the rims I would see on this site and then contact the company to see if they could custom make them in my pattern/offset. Try [url]www.superbuytires.com[/url]

my wheels from my benz are still for sale if you are interested...

They don't fit my bolt pattern :( besides Im thinking of selling/trading my 3pc Mayas for a more agressive look.

Thanks for the offer though
