Question on style of wheels with Sport pkg
Just committed to lease a 2012 E350W4 Sport package. In production either now or in a few days.
My order under the 321 package says 18" 5-spoke alloy wheel. But when I look at the brochure, I see a split 5 spoke wheel.
Will the car come with the 5 solid spoke wheels (which I do like) or the split 5-spoke wheels. Very confusing.
Thanks

Thanks Don.
The brochure is very confusing. It refers to the split 5 spoke as part of the E350 Sport sedan. I much prefer the solid 5 spokes.

Umm...negative. The new '12s are rolling out w/ the split 5-spoke. I know because mine came w/ those and the dealer agreed to swap out '11 MY wheels (solid 5-spoke) w/ the new ones. The Operations/Inventory Manager explicitly said that the new '12s are being delivered w/ the split 5-spoke, which isn't to my liking (as evidenced in my sig--'11 MY rims! 
)... Hope that helps!
