Buying used alloy wheels
Can you recommend a reputable supplier of second hand wheels for my Mercedes-Benz E320? And how can I check the wheels are safe and fit correctly before I buy?

I do not recommend 2nd hand alloy wheels because they could have become porous. For new German Alutec wheels, probably for less than £400 a set, www.tyremen.co.uk
