Will it fit: W211 E63 18's on a '14 CLS550 4Matic
Winter is approaching and I am shopping for a set of wheels/tires for my 2014 CLS550 4Matic. I stumbled upon this ad here on the forum: https://mbworld.org/forums/wheels-ti...ml#post5777598
Would these fit my 2014 CLS550 4Matic?
- The offsets are close enough (maybe a little less aggressive than i'd prefer)
- The rolling diameter is inverted from oem cls550 spec.
CLS550
OEM Front Diameter: 25.4"
OEM Rear Diameter: 25.7"
W211 E63
Tire specs:
Front: 245/40/18 | Diameter: 25.7"
Rear: 265/35/18 | Diameter: 25.4"
Will it be a problem that the rolling radius is different than OEM spec?

Only MBs - the best or nothing
Wheels will work.
Tire will not and need to be replaced.
W211 uses different TPMS sensors (315mhz) than C218 (which uses same 433mhz sensors as all "current" models restyled from 2010 on).

Any reason why the tires wouldn't work? I just checked the oem sizes for the 18" base wheels and they are :
front: 255/40R18 | overall diameter: 26.0"
rears: 285/35R18 | overall diameter: 25.9"
which leads me to believe that a variety of sizes will work.
Where's the cheapest place to get the new 433mhz sensors?
front: 255/40R18 | overall diameter: 26.0"
rears: 285/35R18 | overall diameter: 25.9"
which leads me to believe that a variety of sizes will work.

For winter you want same front/rear vs staggered. For 4matic with winter tires, I would use 255/40-18 at all corners.
TireRack sells OEM replacement 433MHz sensors for about $250 for a set of four.
