Try a commercial scrap yard or Google Dronsfield. They are great for Mercs, but don't know if they do much in the way of commercial stuff. They're very helpful and should be able to point you in the right direction. H

Bus companies used to use a lot of 609 and 709 mercs mini/midi buses, try a bus breakers.

If it is any help, we will be travelling to the Derby area then up to Newark and York next month. Like I said I can get you Merc 709 rims in good condition free of charge. (are they the type that has the small washer on the wheel stud?).
hello was interested to read your post i allso have a mercedes hymer 670 model on a 410 chassis and am trying to upgrade the cruising speed so it doesnt sound as tho im killing it i only want to go at a nice 55/60 but as you know at these speeds it really is thrashing it and mpg suffers ..i read about you putting 709 wheels on yours did it all go well .i have been looking into changing the rear axle to a 412 sprinter but after working out the diff ratio i found that a 412 has the same ratio at 4.18/1 and mine allready has a ratio of 4/1 i was allso looking at a mercedes 609 diff and having measured everything was sure i could fit it as it looked exactly the same but only had a ratio of 3.72 so would give only 8 mph more at the same revs = 370 rpm less at 55mph .. so buying a set of pref 609 wheels with 205 r 16c tyres so hopefully they dont interfere with the springs is the most simple way to go allso if you look on this web site its in my opinion quite interesting

I have been trying to get hold of a set for some time now, like you seven. I have been in-touch with Dronsfield and others many times over the last couple of years to no avail. Plenty of 5 stud 2 & 3 Series wheels around but 4 and 6 are like dobby horse as you cannot get alloys for the twin wheel axle so owners don't replace them.
We use the van a lot all year round and have winter tyres fitted. I want to fit a size larger all season tyre for summer use.
My Nephew is the Sales Manager at a Mercedes Dealership and he is going to order a set of seven for me. I will of course have to pay for them but decided to bite the bullet and go for it.
Best of luck,
Trev.
