Does anyone know if original mercedes GTR wheels and tires fit a GTS ?

I'll let you know in about 2 weeks...
I ordered 2 of these, https://www.mbgtc.de/Raeder-Reifen-F...pgNr=1&?pgNr=1
Had a friend in Germany reship them to me and they are currently in transit

Those are GTC wheels, they're not the same size as the GTR wheels.

You are correct, I just assumed the GTC and GTR had the same 12" wide wheel. The GTC has a ET46 offset and the GTR has a ET52.

This is a pretty good guide for calculating the change in track width.
Looks like the rear GTR wheels are pulled in tighter than the GTC. The GTC wheels would add about 1.3" of protrusion to each side where the GTR would only add a little over 1".
I would much rather have the 1" over the 1.3" but they don't offer a GTR wheel in my GTS style.

So... The GTC factory wheel offset when installed on a GTS goes beyond the fender by close to an inch. Not really the look I was going for.
If anyone is looking for a rear set of 12" wide Titanium 9 spoke let me know...
FYI, Mercedes MSRP is about $2400 each, if anyone is anywhere in the ballpark of MSRP I will include a set of 345 SuperSports mounted and balanced

Ronin AMG-- There may be other threads that I can't locate, but did you have get a good answer to this question from the group here? Any answers or commentary on fitment from the crew here would would be appreciated.

do you have a pic of the car with the GTC wheels on ?

I just bought a set of GTC wheels to fit them on my gts! I hope I didn’t make a huge mistake!.

They won’t fit. They extend 1 1/4” outward from the factory GTS set up. Sorry man - I did something like this when I didn’t know how much wider the 911 turbo was vs the 911 S.
