They will not fit correctly. While I think 2" taller diameter tires will clear, there will be a significant rear poke (due to rear wheel's width/offset and 315 tire) and more importantly these V167 wheels are made to be used with different bolts (15x1.25 instead of W166's 14x1.5).

that’s a huge oversized tire compared to stock diameter on a w166. That’s bigger than a GL550 tire. ML63 runs a 295/35r21. Going to a 45 series is a much taller tire and it might not even fit in the wheel wells. Post pics if you make it work.

- Tread width, 10.6"
- Height, 29.3" measured on a 10.5", so in my case I'm guessing about 29.6" which I can live with.


Still haven't found a rim in a 20" x 10" size with an offset around 56mm. Life would be perfect if I found such a rim with a 66.6mm bore to boot, though I have run hub-centric rings before with no issues. I don't think I'll have to do the staggered deal.
I have AMG replicas for sale 20x10 of set 45

I have the center caps as well.

That is not a real Brabus wheel. That is a copy knock off wheel, so whatever specs they are providing, they are not per Brabus.

Brabus does not make the Monobloc F wheel in a 22" cast wheel. They only make that wheel in a 23" Forged version for the ML/GLE platform.
The cast versions of the F only go to 20", and I don't believe they made a 20 inch F for the suv platforms.

The Brabus Monobloc R comes in a cast 22x10 et65 that then requires the Brabus Spacer/Adapter system to the correct matching vehicle offset.

A 275/35r22 is a slightly taller tire than OEM. It’s a GLE size tire. But it will work on the ML. I wouldn’t go bigger than that. If you are worried about it being too narrow then go to a 295 wide.

hey thanks for the advice but i am guessing you just did not know brabus had the 22x10 inch option for ML63 they said the waiting time would be 3 months aswell.

Also the spacers come in if you are purchasing the widestar body kit other than that they give you offset options too

like this one for example..

yeah I wouldnt want to hit any big potholes with a 35 series although it’s not too bad. I’m in western canada and the roads are pretty good here so I’ve been ok so far.

This is mine on 21x10 AMG wheels and 295/35r21 tires.

Not sure who supplied you that chart, but I am going to guess it is the dealer selling you that wheel that is NOT a Brabus TUV approved or Brabus manufactured wheel in a 22x10.0.
I worked directly for Brabus dating back to 1999 when they opened their first US operation, and I worked for them on and off up to 2012, and in 2013 after opening my own company I became a Dealer/Distributor for their products.
I can assure you that the wheel you are being presented is NOT a Genuine Brabus wheel or application, so you should take caution as any failure of the wheel is not the responsibility of Brabus, and it is a Tarnish to their brand and name to promote this application as it is 100% not their genuine wheel. The Monobloc F Platinum wheel is a Forged wheel that is only available in a 21, and 23" application.
Also, it is a shame that someone is trying to sell you something under the premise that it is a genuine part that comes from a Premium brand, and it is in fact not at all worthy of the Premium price tag or Brand recognition.

Just letting you know. If you go to BRABUS.DE and go into Tuning, go to the GLE 167 Platform as that is the only current chassis similar to the ML and you will see the wheel applications listed, and that wheel you are claiming to be a Brabus is no where on their site.
That vehicle you posted in their showroom is fit with the Brabus Monobloc G, another Platinum Edition forged wheel, and that wheel does in fact come in a 22x10.0, ET65, that is then fit with the Brabus Spacer Adapter kit like all Brabus wheels that accommodates the offset of each application, and also uses wider bolt on adapters for Wide Star applications.

Ask your wheel supplier for the wheel part number, then call Brabus direct and ask them to confirm that part in their product lineup and I guarantee you that you will discover it is not a Brabus wheel. If you want a Brabus 22x10, the offer the G, which is a forged wheel, but they do also offer the Mono R in a 22x10 cast version that is more affordable, but still $1,895.00 per wheel. If that wheel that is a F copy is priced anything lower than $1,895.00 each, that is also another indicator that it is a Fake!
I hope this helps.

Hey you're actually right come to think of it the supplier has done a couple of conversions on cars and they say they are a verified brabus supplier and the price is $2,300 each however you caught my attention on having worked with brabus maybe you might enlighten me with a thing or two i bought a 2017 g63 with the brabus exhaust system was told it was remapped from brabus has the stickers and everything.. also to open the flaps i have to use the button on my steering wheel but its fuel consumption is out of this world could it be the exhaust system???

thanks that’s -32mm down front and rear with the OBD2 plug in lowering module. I normally have it set to -20mm front and -25mm rear for a more level stance.

the bad mileage would be due to the remap they did which is an ECU tune. You could flash it back to stock if you want. Not sure how much the Brabus tune changed it though, as the ML63 and GLE63 get horrible mileage to begin with. ML550 is absolutely terrible in town and I can imagine the ML63 is worse.

that’s why you are getting terrible mileage haha. It’s too much fun to play with. I wonder how it compared to the Weistec tune for the M278. The Weistec tune puts out ML into ML63 power ranges.
