What wheels?

I have these alloy wheels on my 230CE, although they have MB center caps I'm not sure they belong on the car. So question is; are they MB but another model or are they just plain aftermarket a.n.other wheels? Ideas?

Cetainly seem some genuine alloys with a similar design. Way to be sure is to take a wheel off and look for the part numbber stamped on it.

If you could tell us the rim size it'd help a lot!!

Oddball thought, but they do look like Alfa Romeo 156 Selespeed wheels.

The wheels are metallic silver (not polished alloy) and I haven't had them off yet so will look for a MB part no. (doh! didn't think about that!)
Size is on the tyre, 205/55 R15 (can I get 16's or 17's on this car?)

Here's what I think you mean... http://myalfa156.tripod.com/mycarJPEG.JPG

Thanks for that; found this - Mercedes Benz E320T
Apparently they are W210 sport wheels that car's running them on 17's mine are 15's. Any idea what model of W210 they would be off?
Maybe looking to swap them for the "right" wheels to suit the year/model.

What think others?

I don't recognise it, and I would if it was oem.
