2007 GL450 Wheels and Tire Question

I am trying to upgrade the 18" factory wheels/tires on my 2007 GL450 to the look of the AMG 5 spoke similar to the ones that come on the 2011 GL550. I found some 20" wheels at OEM Wheels Plus that might work. I'm concerned that they won't fit my GL450 and all they can tell me is that they "should" work. Can anyone confirm these specifications will fit my vehicle?

MB511 20" silver machined face wheel set
Size: 20 x 10
Bolt Pattern: 5 x 112
Offset: 50

link to actual wheels for sale http://www.oemwheelsplus.com/mb511-2...heels-set.html

Thanks...

GL 450 Rims

I ended up going with 20" inch from USARIM. Here is the before pic with the factory 18" and after pic's with the new 20's...

I've had a ton of positive feedback.

Niiiiice!

Hey Tom, what model is that exactly?
I'm selling my CLK, which means the truck will be my sole vehicle all year round, so I need summer wheels & tires. This is exactly the look I was looking for!

Agreed, those look like 19's not 20's.
