CV3's in 19" are exactly what I'm looking for. Hey Vossen, are they coming? And they need to fit my 2011 E350 Cab

Thanks guys.

I will have to wait a bit and for the 2012 models. Vossen is not easy to get in touch with. No dealer in Norway

Someone seen OZ Raffaello on MB 212?

I've had now discontinued OZ Giotto in 20" (very similar looking 2pc wheel to Raffaello's 3pc). IMO wheels looked smaller (but now I actually regret selling them as they did look stunning) than they actually were (Raffaello looks even "smaller" or more fragile due to thiner spokes). If you're in that league ($$$) might as well look at HREs.

Thanks for thinking about us! Different size 20's arrive in May for better Fitment . 19s are a go and should be here in summer.

The W212 enthusiasts are on our minds!

Im shopping around for a set of 20's and im very disapointed that all the wheels I like arent available in our fitment. Im told anywhere from 4-8 weeks.. Im no expert but shouldnt these companies be ready to release wheels by mid march the latest. When they say 4-8 weeks theres no guarantee.

like i told you, unless your w212 E class is an E63, then bc of the offset the cv3 wont work, you would have to go with cv2 i believe.

OK! Like some say, summer is a looong time!

I would have bought CV3 by now if they would fit my car.

I need wheels to mid april. Someone has experience with "STANCE WHEELS", is that the same as Vertini?

=)

What do you guys think about the Kleemann TS-7 in 20" on a 212?

What offset do I have to run? Somebody with some pics of them on a 212?

Looks like euro 63's.. 323 motosports have them for cheap.. Honestly my first choice for wheels are a split 5 spoke concave. Those are nice

Would have the Vossen CV3 if they would fit..
Not easy to get concave when the offset on the rear wheel is so high. I look`d for a concave wheels set, but didn`t find something liked, accept for the CV3.
Vossen will make CV3 fit not only the E63, but also the other 212`s in the summer.... I can`t wait to the summer

Im going to disagree.. i have 10" wide rears at 40et and im very happy with the concavity.. the front are a different story. 8.5" wide with 35et not concave at all.. maybe if you can pull off 9" in the front at like 40 et it will work and be slightly more concave. but you will need to stretch the tire with a 9" wheel if your going to lower the car. look into Vertini monaco, rohanna wheels has a new concave line.

OK! I have search for the "right" wheels for month, but didn`t find anything Dont have so much to choose from here in Norway.. What wheels do you have? Some pix?

I actually was thinking about the Vertini Monaco, but the dealer in Norway coulldt get it this year :/

I think the wheels i have ordered would be nice on the car

I have Eurotek 06 wheels all black.. made by mrr wheels.. i just put them on yesterday.. by the time i was done it was dark out, no photos yet, they are a concave open mesh style. I like them but honestly i believe a more open wheel, like a 5 or 6 spoke concave would look the best! Stance sc-5 also.. The wheels i am mentioning are on the cheaper side.. 2000-2500 wheel/tires.. if you want to spend the $ you can go with a 3 piece forged and the possibilities are endless

Those wheels are great! Vossen are making alot of new models this year, hope they are thinking of us 212 owners when making them

The stance sc-5 are great also! Think it will be a set of Vossen next year!

Still waiting for my car! Cant't wait! Will be in my garage in 3-4 weeks!

Good luck man.. I personally dont like vossens new line, also i was looking for all black wheels witch they dont have. Obviously everyone has different taste.. Another problem was vossen isnt going to come out with there new wheels till july/august (i find that way too long of a wait) I did realize that w212 fitments are limited.

Thanks! I think my "euro 26" wheels in 20" will look great! (pix will be posted)
I'm so lucky to actually work at Mercedes in Norway as a mechanic! Have alot of experience with them, but most on the diesel models

If you need som diy etc, let me know

Thanks for help!
