2010 E550 coupe
Put on Amg Monoblock Rims and my dash lit up like a chirstmas tree.

Last weekend i put on AMG Oldschool Monoblock chrome rims and i had several issues:

1. ABS, Traction control light came on and said system was inoperable
2. Check engine light came on.
3. While test driving the Car started stalling only letting me go up to 40 mph.
4. tpms sensor came on which i expected.

Did anyone else have this type of problem?

I don't know what it could be?

Those are some old school rims for sure! Did you check the flux capacitor? Sorry I'm no help.

Sorry for reviving an old thread.
Did you managed to sort out the errors or you had to switch back to more "up to date" rims?
I'm looking to buy a set of monoblock rims and fit them on a w218, but I'm a bit confused now.

I'm guessing the rear tires were a larger diameter than the fronts. This makes the computer think there's slippage that can't be resolved by traction control and can throw error codes. You can see in the photo that the front tire looks lower profile than the rear. The wheels themselves couldn't have been the problem.

With that said, I've had taller rear tires and never had any issues with them. But others have reported different.

This should only be any issue with awd
