looking to throw some 18's on the Benz I buy.
I'm not sure what my budget is for rims and tires but I've been asking around for some great sites.


tirerack.com so far has been reccommended.
even shows what it looks like on my whip.

average prices for a set are 700-1200 ish for a black pair.

I'll spend up to 2 on rims. but If those rims are still good rims and there only
like 800-900$ then I could grab tires easy too.

any suggestions?

Canada is where I live btw

Just a few off the top of my head in your price range that I like. I'm sure there are plenty of options out there.

Also try rimtuck.com for fitment guides.

Don't follow tirerack sizing. Go to a benz forum. If you're going to stay stock height just find amg stockers though, aftermarket rims alot of the time look like shit stock height lol.
