21" GL AMG Rims on ML350 2012

Hey guys, need a bit of help. My friend is buying some aftermarket wheels for his GL350, and he is selling his OEM AMG package wheels.


21", and tire sizes are 295/40/21. Would I have an issue running this on the ML?


Thanks

It depends on which model wheels from the GL. The offset are different from ML to GL. We had this case on a car and there was some slight rubbing on the suspension during tight turning.

The tires are not the correct size for an ML. The GL uses a larger overall diameter tire than the ML.

The wheels will work but they will extend further due to the extra offset for the fender flares on the GL.

thanks for the help guys. I most likely will need to change the tires to 255, but I read in another post a member running 295 without issues.


Can I use my OEM wheel lugs for the ML on these 21" GL rims?
