I just hit Tirerack and going through snow packages, I choose my tire then go next and it says no wheels available for this car! WTF?!

Are the brakes bigger on the 6MT package? So big that the 17 and 18 snows don't fit (I doubt it).

Please post your wheel/tire combos. I am thinking 17" blizaak, but have no idea on wheel yet. I also would love to go straight (non staggered) if possible... anyone do this? If so, what sizes on the tire?

Lastly, I have 4 Mercedes (2003 C Class, upgrade) wheels and tires ... do you think any of the local tire shops will trade those in? I can't even begin to think about pushing those on ebay. what a pain.

Thanks all!

 

Call them, they will have wheels for the application. I had to do that this time last year when I bought mine and had the same issue.

 

just use the 04 6mt on tireracks website. Anything that will clear the brembos will clear the 05 brakes and the fitments are the same.

I went with 17in ASA JH3's with Dunlap wintersports this past winter and had zero problems.

 

I saw a set for sale, ASA 17s with 225/55/17 on all four. Is that a good size for a non brembo 2003 coupe?
