Style 193 replicas?

themyst · 01-18-2011, 11:48 PM

Being that finding a fair market value set of OEM 193s is impossible for some reason right now, I was looking into the replica route.

The only vendor I saw that sells the 193 replicas was **********s, but the are 18x8 all around, and I wanted to go with the OEM staggered setup.

Can anyone point me to a vendor that sells these replicas in the OEM size? Thanks in advance.

you should just wait until somebody decides to sell their stocks... most i've ever seen is 1k... but im sure they sell for less w/o tires

I offered 1k shipped for just the rims and got ignored

With or without tires?

I don't want or need tires tpm or anything just rims, got a set of perfectly good Dunlop direzza z1s sitting here

I'd consider a whole set with fresh rfts if the price was right though.

The 1k offer shipped was for just rims. After hearing this though maybe good he didnt accept my offer.

do a google search, i came up with two other places that carry replica wheels including the style 193. but beware of quality issues, finding these websites made me change my mind about replicas, most of them will not reveal the manufacture. one of the websites that did show the manufacture, i searched it and found a bunch of negative remarks on mercedes forums about vibrations due to the hub centric being off

try hubcaphaven.com they say they are refurbished oem but the style 193 are $179 that seems cheap to me you may want to call them.
