That's a good idea... But I was thinking since it was a European model part that it would not necessarily be available in the US...
I wil ask the Dealership next time I go there.

Thanks

Went through this last year; one of the dealership parts guys attempted to order through the smart system but was blocked by smart USA. Apparently they have a ban on ordering most EU-only parts. Probably have better luck with a dealer in Canada or Mexico.

I looked into the six spoke Euro wheels way back when, but the cost was just too much for me with shipping from a place in Canada that was getting them. I settled for the six spoke Rials from Tire Rack at a much more reasonable price ($99 ea on special) and went 6" rims all the way around.

Those Euro options are nice, though. I bet the 5 and 6 spoke designs are easy to clean with that smooth outer edge design.

I saw these wheels at Tire Rack... They look sweet... I would get them... I will need to see if they would give me a good deal if I give them my 9spoke wheels in exchange... :-)

How much did it cost you with or without tire out the door? With TPMS?

The cost for (4) Rial 15x6 rims, (4) new TPMS sensors, and (4) Yokohama AVID T4 195/50 all-season tires with mounting, balancing, and shipping was about $970. I put them on the car myself.

I don't believe Tire Rack will take your OEM wheels, but I was able to sell my OEM wheels/tires/TPMS through SCOA for around $600. Lots of folks want the rear wheels to put up front. So my net cost was about $370 for the new setup.

You can see them on my car at about 35 seconds into my anniversary video:
