I recently took delivery of a Graphite Grey Magno CLE53 and am on the hunt for a winter tire wheel/tire combo. It presently has the 20" summers. I'm having a remarkably hard time finding anything. Tire Rack has no specs at all for this car (but offered to sell me all-weathers to put on the stock wheels). Since I expect them to be subjected to our typically brutal northern Ohio winters I'd prefer after market wheels over OEM. Has anyone had any luck? Are there other models (E53?) that share the same fitment?

I had the exact same issue. My only choice was to go with OEM and this is what I landed on.

I am taking the opposite approach and ordering with the RRD 19 inch wheels and all seasons . With the Canadian winter this would be my normal minimum set up .
If I want some thing sportier for the summer I can deal with that in the future , although from my current experience with my E450 I find this size to be a good compromise for ride and surviving potholes !
hey how did these work out for you? I could be wrong but The offset seems different. I’m looking for factory offset or slightly more agressive.
I got the rims and tires delivered. Probably going to get it installed in the next 2 weeks. Will post pics when I do. I ended getting the C63 SE, so the rims and tires are to the OEM spec of the summer tires for that model.
If you contact the place that made the rims for me and give them the specific specs for the CLE53, they will be able to adjust and produce the rims to fit.
Mayur999,
While I do not require winter tires, I do want to change my rims.
I have the same RTM 20" AMG Muti-Spoke Y-Design Black wheels as member Splunge in my 2024 CLE-53 AMG.
Did not have the option in my 2024 model for the 2025 option of RVR 20" AMG Cross-Spoke Forged Wheels in Gray.
I have inquired my local dealer, but they do not have pricing as of last week.
I suspect that they will be fairly expensive and that leads me to your purchase and the interest in your results.
Have contacted Forza with details on my C53AMG and they replied that many options are available.
I'm assuming that the specs on the Forza forged wheels meet or exceed MB wheel specs. Do not have specs from MB or Forza..
Let us know how that Forza purchase turns out.
Enjoy,

Not a problem. I have received the rims and have the tires. Just working on getting them mounted in the next two weeks and put on the car. Will post pics and an update once they are on the car!
Yes, the dealer was able to accommodate my request for the Michelin Alpine. The only other tire that I feel would be acceptable is the Blizzak's but the size needed was unavailable. So far so good, the ride is great and nominal additional road noise.
My local dealership's quote for OEM wheels and winter tires came to nearly 10% of the cost of the car. I ended up ordering Continental Extreme Contact all-seasons for the original wheels. I'll circle back and take another look down the road when (hopefully) additional options open up.
