Downgrading to 20" Rims
Hi all

I decided to downgrade my factory stock wheels from 21" to 20" due to ride comfort and a more wider wheels.

Found a good deal on G63 wheels, only driven for a week and priced at $1066.

here are some pics of the wheels









My question is, How wide i can go with those wheels on my ml. And will I notice any difference in ride quality? ( I believe g63 wheels are one size all around if I'm not mistaken?)

Thanks in advance for your help!

Make sure the bolt pattern is the same. I may be wrong but I was thinking the G wagon had a different bolt pattern.

The G Series has a different bolt pattern (5 x 130) than the ML/GL series (5 x 112).

Pretty much all ML/GL wheels are interchangeable as it relates to bolt patterns. However, the offset will vary based on wheel.

If you are wanting to go from 21" to 20", I recommend finding the 20" AMG wheel from the ML as you will have no issues with alignment.
