Buying Alloys?

[a6rnh]

Hello.
Ok, this is my first post so apologies if it's in the wrong place.
basically i want to buy some new alloys for my c250, the standard ones look too much like a business mans car... can anyone recommend an online store or physical store in the yorkshire area?

and what sort of things should i be aware of when buying alloys?
and can i sell my current ones but keep the tyres?

many thanks,
richard

Minefield, the W204 C Class can take up to 19" wheels and are staggered so wider on the rear than on the front.

Ideally 8" wide front and 8.5" or 9" wide rears 17 -19" diameter

There are thousands around that will fit but the quality on some is suspect, WSP make the best replica wheels.

Do you have a style in mind?

The bigger you go the harder the ride, the bigger you go people think the car looks better.
The wider you go the more expensive the tyres, you make more noise and the rims are more easily damaged in pot holes.

Try an hit the middle of the road, always show pictures of what you fancy as many a good car ruined by the wrong wheels.

I fancy something simple - spokes, like the ones on the c class coupe or thinner ones like the c63...matt grey maybe.
Do you have to buy new tyres with alloys or get your current ones transferred across? -the rear tyres are new..

You can have the tyres swapped over.

Only with the same diameter wheel
