Smile W222 18' Rim Changeout

The S550 that I have purchased (not yet delivered to me from across the country) has these boring 10 spoke wheels.


I don't want to change the wheel size at this point and want information on if 18" multispoke wheels like this

Did you enter your car information in their car compatibility chart? I just did and it says they would fit. I would call them and discuss over the phone to be sure.

Thank you prochambers. I did but wasn't sure about all of the information I see about offset and different widths in front and back. I will call them though, just wanted to reach out to the MBWorld brain trust!

Don't ever believe Ebay compatibility charts! These are fake AMG wheels which never have the appropriate offsets for your car.

In general, I would only check on S-Class wheels for the W222 so that the offset issue doesn't come up. But there was only one fitment (or maybe 2) for 18" wheels available. So what you have is somewhat it.
The majority of S-Class models had 19" or 20" wheel sets. Stay with them for simplicity.

Something like this?

I am in the exact same situation and have exhausted the possibilities. I saw those E-Bay ones and called and found that they would fit our 18" requirements but they are made in China to the sellers specs (18" M.B. specs.)

S class owners are always cheap-ing out on wheels LOL. Get what it deserves: custom wheels from a reputable wheel maker.

I have a wheel shop next to my office and they are a national franchise so he's checking to see if he can locate some OEM Multispoke wheels in 18" that were offered on the C & E classes. I'll report what he finds.

Again, I sure would like to know if there is any aftermarket 18" rims that fit our S 550 class vehicles. Some say they have ones that fit....NOT. Watch out for the clearance for our Brake Calibers.....they are big !!

That’s exactly it. Offset, inner barrel diameter, etc. The caliper often get in the way on the fronts.
Every MB has different offsets, so C or E class wheels typically don’t fit the S-Class.
