e350 Winter wheel size
Hi, I'm a new member, bought 06 e350 with stock 17'' wheels. I want to by a winter set , and when I go to tirerack, I can't configure my car with 16'' wheels, it says "cannot downsize to 16 inch". But I've seen 06 e350 with 16'' wheels, Can someone tell me if they will fit? Thanks.

I think that the brake clipers/rotors on the RWD E350s will not fit inside 16s. But, 4-Matics have different brakes and they might fit, but I am not sure. You need to do some serious research before you end up with rims that scrape the brakes!

I was able to find 16" AMG knock offs that fit my 03 E500 fine.
Discount Tire near my house was great. They tested wheels from stock then investigated and found the 16's that fit. Not a bad price either. Just over $1000.00 for the whole set installed.
