Winter wheel/tire packages?
I got the car w/ the 22" and Pzeroes, starting to check out winter wheel tire packages, either in 20 or 21". Tirerack's is w/ 21" OZ wheels and scorpions, seems pricey at 4k.
Suggestions?

GLE43 coupe
Same problem for me.
I'll have to pay way more due to hefty tax and duty here in Canada.
You may consider factory winter package if you don't mind they look ugly. Sometimes dealer have discounts on those packages. Without discount the price is pretty much the same as tirerack.

Looks like you can't go smaller than 21" for the GLE43. Very limited selections on Tirerack.com The base GLEs can take as small as 17".
O.Z rims are one of the most expensive rims Tirerack carries. Light weight, high end.
I would go look else where if you want to save some $.

To be honest, I am not sure if you can find much cheaper options...I mean you wouldn't really want to have low quality 21" rims on your new AMG.
Not sure which brand. Any decent brand in 21" will be expensive. You might be able to find replicas? But again, not sure if quality is there.
But if you are lucky, you might be able to find used 21" Mercedes wheels from Kijiji, ebay, or craigslist.

2017 GLE43W4
I have a set of GLE AMG 21 inch wheels (black version) with Conti Tires that I had purchased (dealer takeoffs) thinking I was going to buy a GLE 400, and switch them out. I purchased a 2017 GLE 43 with a different set of wheels instead. The wheel set has a few minor scratches due to shipping/handling. The only issue is shipping might be $$$. This is a stock photo of the wheel set. Thoughts?
