AMG Double-Spoke 18 vs AMG Triple-Spoke 19 fitment
Hello guys!!!!
I'm living in the Middle East and got myself an E300 Avantgarde W212 2013 with the AMG package. The Datacard shows Avantgarde/Standard Suspension code 677. The wheels installed are the AMG Double-Spoke 18" with mixed tires (AMG Styling IV). Supposedly the front ones are 8.5 x 18 ET 48 and the rear ones are 9 x 18 ET 54.
As far as I googled, it says that "The tire dimensions reach from 245/40 R 18 for the front axle to 265/35 R 18 for the rear axle in case of mixed sets of tires"
I would LOVE to upgrade the wheels to the AMG triple-spoke alloy wheels. I have found them in two versions:
Front wheels AMG Styling VII - 8.5 x 19 inch ET43
Rear wheels AMG Styling VII - 9.5 x 19 inch ET43

By running an offset calculator, with the ET 43 on then back and 265/30 19 x 9.5, the package will only go 11mm out, which they claim it's acceptable for most cars.

or (used on the R231)
Front wheels AMG Styling VII - 8.5 x 19 inch ET30 (Part Number 2304015402)
Rear wheels AMG Styling VII - 9.5 x 19 inch ET31 (Part Number 2304015502)

With a such low offset I will definately have problems.
Now the problem is that I cannot find the part numbers for the wheels in ET43.
Does anyone know if they really exists??? I haven't emailed to ask them if they are OEM of replicas...
Thanks a lot for the help you gurus could give me!!!!
