Try this site for Mercedes wheels:
http://adsitco.com/catalog/default.asp?CID=1485

These guy carry Mercedes knock off wheels and are reasonably priced.
The site is nice because you can look at the various styles in the
various wheel sizes. There are some nice 15"s up there for those of you
looking to upgrade from your 14"s. They have a NO RETURN policy and are
serious about that. I can't remember if the site lists the offsets but
you can call them about that. They're in Muncie, Indiana.
