SL 500 Wheels on a E Class???
Will SL 500 wheels fit on an E Class? Have a friend who is willing to give them to me but I am not sure if they will fit. I think they are too wide, but I could be wrong...

Must be nice I don't see why not, but it'll more clear if you can provide more info or picture of them.
It all depends on which pkg your friend has. I 've seen diff SL500 equipped with all 3 diff type of wheels.

Which wheels they are depends on what SL500 it is. What year is the SL500?
In most cases, you will need new tires to properly fit (assuming the wheels will fit).

Sorry guys, I guess that post was a bit vague.. OK well it is an 03 SL500. The rims are 18" and they have 255/40 in the front, and 285/40 on the back. I am sure that I will have to change the tires, but just wanted to know if the rims will fit. And what I mean by fit is, I dont know if the rim it's self is too wide, because I dont want the tire to stick out.
I have some pics, this is not actually his car, but these are pics of an 03 with the rims he has on it.

Double check with NTB or Discount Tires for fitments, they have a guide book for OEM, but I don't think they can give you definate answer.
I ***THINK*** it'd perfectly fit on the E-class because it should be same offset and width as E55 AMG. My.02
