Can anybody name the specs on the AMG wheels I have on? They look staggered based on the tire sizes, so I want to know how wide the rear wheels are and the offsets on all four. I have a set of iForged wheels from my audi and I'm trying to see if I can swap them over.

Yet Another Newbie here
In the world of German cars, I've only ever owned BMW and Audis. I crossed the chasm last week and picked up a CPO 2011 E350 and absolutely love it. Not sure why I was against buying MB before 
-- the car is a comfortable ride and has got the neighbors commenting.
Spent some time on mbworld the last couple days and this is an awesome community! In result of lurking the forums, I have ordered an hid kit from theretrofitsource (mine is p1), LEDs from AznOptics, and clear side markers from ebay.
Anyhow, just thought I'd throw out my first newbie hello world post and include a camera-phone photo of my E350 with her new family members:

Very nice! Welcome. I love those AMG Type IV wheels! I'm going to try to find a set for my 4matic. Personally I like that look better than the split 6 spoke AMG's my 2010 came with.
Enjoy!

1. Once you've uploaded your photo to photobucket, go to the photobucket page where you can view your photo.
2. On the right hand side of the photobucket page containing your photo, you'll see an "Image Links" panel. Click in the field labeled "Direct Link" and it will automagically copy the photo URL to your computer's clipboard.
3. In the mbworld forum area where you type in your message, there is a toolbar above with an icon that looks like a mountain landscape. Click on it. Here's a screenshot of it, with the icon circled:
4. A new dialog window will appear asking for the image URL. Paste the URL from step 2 into this field. ( on Mac, it's ⌘ + v / on Windows, it's ctrl + v ).
Hope these steps work for you.
Thanks Bryan. I think the 6 spoke AMG sport package wheels also look pretty good for 'stock' wheels.

I had these wheels sitting in my garage collecting dust, so I bit the bullet & got them fixed (curb rash & bent), new tires, & H&R springs installed. Couldn't be happier. I went from feeling like "ehh" about my W212 and now I can't stop looking at it. Up next are painted side markers & a carbon fiber front lip. I'm debating on a roof spoiler. Apologies for the crappy iPhone pics.
