We offer them for sale to people that need a spare or a replacement. Sometimes we get a ton of wheels in and sit on them for months. Sometimes (like now) we are out and need more stock to fill demand. Once we get more in we can help you with the rears you need.

Right now our stock is limited to a set of "like new" smart wheels in white with tires and a set in Pink with tires. Within a week we will have more.

It depend on the amount of stock and interest we have at the moment. Call us directly for pricing.

Trade in process...

Once you receive your new set of wheels you will probably take them over to your local tire shop, have them take out the sensors, install them in the new wheels, mount up the tires and give you back your old wheels. Simply drop them off or ship them back to us. Once we receive them we will issue you a credit which you can cash out or use for other purchases.

If you are local, then it is much easier. For more details please give us a buzz and we will give you options.

Thanks!

I see the de corsa uses the same wheel size as the standard, but the lorinsa uses 17" - i also like the
smart car Lorinser 17" Speedy Custom Wheels in Satin Black for your 451 fortwo model

My question though, what tire size goes with those wheels, and is that a more common wheel size? reason i ask is because i'm looking to swap out to a more common wheel size so if i get another blow out it will be easier to get a spare.

Call us and we will give you lots of options. 562-961-6800.

Not at all! We're here to enjoy our cars and at the same time assist others. Don't worry about not being too knowledgable... I remember spending countless hours explaining to Rach what the difference is between tire sizes and what is what. Now she has it down! :-)

While some think I am an expert, I'll be quick to admit that there are many, many people on this board that are WAY more knowledgeable about smart cars and cars in general than I am. Both Rachel and I appreciate the constructive criticism and assistance that we get from the community and do to that we ourselves have become a lot more knowledgeable.
