My Dad's wheel cracked, just need some advice
we have a 2003 c320 and this rim just cracked
first of all, i don't know the name of the rim, so if someone could identify it, it would be greatly appreciated
and second of all, i don't if we should get it fixed or replaced. it cracked right on the width of the rim.
if i need get it replaced, any place i can get a good deal on one?
thanks guys!

Aluminum can be tricky to repair. As important as wheels are to the safety of your car, I wouldn't recommend attempting a repair. But there are shops that will do wheel repairs. Check your yellow pages.
I did a Google search and found an OEM reconditioned wheel at Wheels and Rims http://www.wheels-and-rims.com/cgi-b...00110509106.29. It's a 16" diameter wheel for $329 plus shipping.
Finish Line also has your wheel in OEM ($249) and Replica ($258) but it is in a 17" size here: http://www.finishlinewheels.com/MERC...TYPE+203/2003/
