Hi, got a CLA on order with the standard 18 inch rims. However, watching YouTube vids of the CLA launch they tend to have the 19 inch rims... So I’m keen on getting the 19 inch turbine style alloys but it’s too late to change the order.
Can anyone recommend a retailer for these please? Also, can the centre caps be changed. I’d like to have the Mercedes logo, and not the third party brand name?

Apologies if this is a silly question,

Change the order because the wheels will be a lot cheaper from the factory than aftermarket. Otherwise keep an eye on eBay etc.

Yes you can change the centre caps regardless.

I also have a new CLA on order, and its been sitting at the dealer since 24th March.
I noticed from doing my research before ordering that all CLA models below the AMG 35/45 cars in all trim specs use the same 18" wheels.
I found this slightly disappointing because you could have the cheapest CLA 180 AMG Line which uses the same wheels as a CLA 250 Premium Plus. In fact even the entry level CLA 35 uses the same 18" wheels but they are painted differently.
The first model to use 19" wheels is the CLA 35 Premium.
Mercedes do not officially offer the option to specify different wheels on the CLA

Thanks for that info., that’s really helpful.
I think I’ll go down the eBay road then. Hope you enjoy the car (when you finally get to pick it up).
