just try guessing using the above chart. estimate sidewall height. i'd guess
18"...with <4" sidewall. if you're looking for exactly, try contacting the owner.

mackmack

i got the same rims (but not chrome) and mine are 18 ,

E420SportGT

they look like 18s

Air Marshall Eldritch

Yes, I Think 18

E55 KEV

18x8.0 et31
18x9.0 et35 rear

DO U GUYS KNOW FOR SURE IF THEY ARE 18'S???????

SURE THEY COULDN'T BE 19, OR 20 INCH REPLICAS???

mr bad example

A) the clown don't know how to park, B) i'd stay away from tires with profile ratios lower than 50's C) they could be replicas, www.tirerack.com sells chromed AMG look-a-likes, $500 a pop. i'd stay away from chrome plating, my father has chromed mags on his jeep, they rusted out 2 times, after a couple years they look like crap.

you didn't use that chart I reference above, did you? each time you go up
an inch, you lose .5" sidewall. how sure can anyone be given the photos
you supplied? it's a guess. provide better pictures and we can be more
for sure.

E55 KEV

WTF do U expect? A sworn statement? You expect us to know what they are from those bad pics and now you ask us if they are replicas or not! Someone delete this thread!

galleryvw

if they were 21s there would be no tire on the wheel.

And why can't the poster read the diameter off the tire? He can't get the width, but he is only asking for the daimeter, so???????

raymond g-

dont think he took the pic....but grabbed it from site he saw

atlatl

Why is everybody attacking me? I figured since this is the MB forum I thought maybe there would be some experts in here that could tell exactly what size they are off hand just by looking at my "bad" pic's. And no i didn't take the pic's myself nor do I know who's car it is.

atlatl

no www.tirerack.com doesn't have these particular rims in 18+ inch CHROME thanks anyway

vinceC

Lets see why:

1) Several folks answered your question to the best of their knowledge but you answered with this:

2) You used all caps - on every internet forum I know of all caps is considered shouting - which is considered to be rude.

E43 S

They deff look like 18's with about 50 on the side wall

I have 19" with 30 tires and it looks like im riding on blades

atlatl

what does 50 on the side wall mean??? and does anyone know where I can find these rims online in 18 or 19 inch chrome?

vinceC

The 50 means the section height. It is the ratio of the width to the height of the tire. As the rim diameter increases the section height must go down to maintain the same overall tire diameter. Otherwise the tire gets bigger, raising the car and causing issues with gearing, speedo accuracy, suspension geomtery, etc.

Those rims look like the original E55 AMG Monoblocks. The originals were never supplied as chrome. You might try these folks: http://www.wheelcollision.com/ for a used set. Look in their catalog for 00-02 E55 wheels - 18 x 8 and 18 x 9. Be warned, those monoblocks are heavy. Make sure you have good shocks to control the increase in unsprung weight.

Otherwise you will just have to search the aftermarket, maybe eBay.

E55 KEV

That aspect ratio is too high for an 18" rim. The 16" OEM tire on a E320 is 215/55/16. W210 E-Class tires would be these:

17"
235/45/17
255/40/17 rear

18"
235/40/18
245/40/18
265/35/18 rear
275/35/18 rear
