I need suggestions on how to upgrade my 16" wheels to 18".

I have a set of 4 of the 18" Monoblock wheels but they hit the strut in the front. I bought a set of 20 mm concentric spacers, but they don't fit over the hub on the front. The spacers are made by ECCPP. So I'm giving up on the 18" Monoblocks.

Can anyone recommend a 18" Mercedes wheel that will fit the car.

w210 e55 monoblocks should fit or you can find some 18" w211 wheels and get the appropriate bolts to mount them.

It has to do with the front offset - and in late '90's - the E55 18" mono blocks should work - I "think" late '90's SL wheel sets "could" work - test fitting is best.

The E55 Monoblocks are staggered. Are you 100% sure you're not trying to fit some rears on the fronts? Monoblocks from an E55 should fit with no issues.

I have Monoblocks on my wagon now, zero fitment issues.



Like illest said you could go with W211 wheels too if you get the correct lug bolts. I had those same ones on my wagon.

Common issue is that E class owners buy wheels from S class as those go dirt cheap.
That is due that S class is having much bigger offset and will not fit E class unless modified.
Where are you located?
I might have to part with my classic Lorinsers as W212 has bigger offset as well.
Here they are on W210.
