Buying alloy wheels online

I have damaged alloy wheel rims with flats on the inside edges. I have a two-year-old Mercedes-Benz CLS.

I can only put it down to those dreadful sleeping policemen.

I have found rims from alloywheelsdirect.net who claim to only supply new and original Mercedes-Benz rims, not replicas, and their prices are 20% below my Mercedes garage.

I can find no independent reveiw of the company. Do you have any knowledge of this company and their reliability?

Sorry, no, I don't know of them. But if they can cut into the MB supply chain there is no reason why they should not be able to supply these wheels for 20% less.
