Only if you have a 500E other than that no they will not fit.

Those measurements make no sense, that style wheel was never offered in a 18" only a 17", so they are aftermarket wheels. Also never seen them in 18x9, only 18x8.5". Either way, they are not going to fit a standard W124. You would need a 18x8 35mm offset, but you would be better off with a 18x7.5", especially if your car is lowered.

There is no such wheel as an 18.5X9

The wheels you're looking at are probably 17s and possibly 18s.

When you measure a wheel with a tape measure you measure from tire mounting flange to tire mounting flange not the outside edge. This corresponds with the size of the tire, which does NOT fit on the absolute outside edge of the wheel.

when u measure some of the wheels they are not 18" at the lip so maybe that's why he put 18.5 and he put 9 because maybe it's an 8.5 width. But they will still not fit on your car.

loooking at your red 500e, those are pretty much the same wheels i 'm thinking the auction is for... is yours 18x7.5 ? ..but of course your is a 500e, mine is a standard issue 300e.

if those came off a clk they should be 17x7.5 and 17x8.5 so they should fit as long as the rear wheels off set is somewhere between 35-40mm but should fit anyways with some rear fender rolling.

The original MB wheels like mine were never available in 18". My wheels are 18x8.5" and are aftermarket.
