The New Mercedes-Benz G550 on HRE’s Iconic 540 Wheels – A Wheels Boutique Build



Working in partnership with Ice Performance in Scottsdale, Arizona this W463A G-Class was fitted with one of HRE’s more iconic wheels – the 540. The 540 was re-realeased in 2018 to celebrate HRE’s 40th anniversary. It is available with three different lip types and for this occasion the client chose the reverse lip version called the 540R. This version eliminates any “step” in the lip design which further exaggerates the deep dish look. In Scottsdale the terrain is much different than what we find here in Miami so this G550 may see more off-roading than the average G-Wagon and because of that Toyo Open Country M/T’s were added for good measure. Let us know what you think about the setup by commenting below.

I saw that on Instagram and it looks fantastic! Did they do any suspension lift, or is that on stock suspension?

Thank you very much! This G-Wagon was in fact lifted. We love the G-Class with this type of look. It's a nice refreshment after you say so many in stock form.

Definitely a good looking G. Is it the same lift height as the (50mm) one you guys did on 35” tires? Looks like the same fender clearance but obviously the 35” tire is larger.

Yeap you're spot on - this is using a 2" lift kit to be able to use these larger 33" off-road tires.
