OEM 18" wheel sizes?
Can someone confirm the front and rear wheel sizes for the 18" OEM wheel package for the E350 (what comes stock I believe on the E550). Are the fronts 18x8 and the rears 18x8.5 or fronts 18x8.5 and rears 18x9?
I believe the wheel package for E350 are same as stock wheels on E550, correct?
Thanks!!

From what I understand, it should be fronts 8.5" and rears 9"? Or was it 8" front, and 8.5" rear.... Now I'm confused.
I do know that the E350 and E550's use the exact same diameter wheels (exact same wheels). And all the W212's stock 18" wheels are the exact same width, regardless if it's the 6 or 5-Spoke AMG Wheels, or the non AMG "blade look" 18" wheels.

Did some research - for NON 4matics the wheels are 18x8.5 with 245/40 on the fronts and 18x9 with 265/35 on the rears. For 4matics, all four corners are 18x8.5 with 245/40. Now wondering if anyone has put these wheels/tires on a luxury model and how it would look because of the lack of extra molding around the base of the car.

Well, it really depends on the wheel style. Typically the AMG wheels are going to be 8.5(ft) x 9.5 (rr). Some of the non AMG wheels are a bit different, with fronts ranging from 8.0-8.5 and the rear ranging from 8.5 to 9.5 (4-matic depending).

^^ I think you're speaking of the wheels on actual AMG cars being 9.5" on the rears.
From what I know, any non-AMG E-Class with 18" wheels (and non 4-Matic) will have 9" on the rears, regardless of whether they're AMG wheels (which of course, are the AMG wheels that are designed to be on non AMG models).

FWIW Here are pictures of a W212 with Luxury trim with the 18" 5 spoke wheels from the sport trim (I know, not the AMG wheel package), but you can see the overall proportions with the luxury side molding etc.
These 18" wheels are standard with the sport trim - 5-spoke wheel
Finish: titanium silver
Wheel: 8.5 J x 18 ET 48 |
Tire: 245/40 R18
A212 401 1302
This compares to the 18" AMG 6-twin-spoke wheel |
Style IV
AMG light-alloy wheel |
silver, high-sheen
Wheel: 8.5 J x 18 ET 48 |
Tire: 245/40 R18

This thread has tons more pictures from which you can see different trim/wheel combinations.
Hope this helps.

Thanks. So the standard 5 spoke and the AMG split spoke will have same profile, width, etc. etc. as they are both 18x8.5 245/40 (unless you go staggered in the back with 9" which I probably would not do). Thanks for pics. Looks good from side and front, but a little hard to tell from back. I'll check out the other thread.
