What other MB rims fit on the GLK 250

What other MB rims fit on the GLK 250?

Any particular model of MB vehicle have similar rim/bolt/width/offset?

I generally look for GLK rims, but there are slim pickins'

What is the maximum width of a rim/tire combo for a 2015 GLK 250?

lots of aftermarket companies, lots of wheel choices.......I advise to go with a company that makes them per your car: HRE for example builds wheels to fit whatever car exactly......width, offsets etc

I too am interested, since I have a set of OEM 16" 5 Lug 112mm 41mm offset wheels for my 1999 ML320 that have good snows on them, and am wondering if they would be able to be put onto my new GLK 250? I know the bolt pattern is ok, not sure of the offset, and not sure if the Calipers and rotor will clear the smaller diameter wheel, although there looks to be a considerable gap from the outer caliper to inner wheel if you look through.

HREs for a GLK? LOL. Somehow I can't see too many people going that route. Even most AMG owners are usually too cheap to dish out $6K+ for a set of wheels - and here you are talking about a 2 ton, entry-level SUV. Sure, the BBS RS-GTs and HREs I had left over from my Audi S4 bolt on the wife's GLK just fine, but you show me ONE person that bought new, custom-offset HREs for a GLK, and I'll show you a fool...

No. 17s are the smallest that will fit on the GLK.

Oh, sure they can. They can also be gold-plated and diamond-encrusted if you want, with a $750K IWC Siderale Scafusia on the dash.

I never said that you can't have a set of HREs made for the car, only that for the average (sane) owner it doesn't make any sense from a financial perspective to spend <$40K on the whole car and >$6K on aftermarket rims when most of them b!tch about the cost of a $200 oil change.
