[QUOTE=icebeam;6610413]Odd they would change something mid-model year. I wonder if they had a lot of complaints?[/QUOTE
The wheels were changed for all of 2016 and were not a mid-year change. The standard wheels on the '14 and '15 were not received well based on discussions I had with my local dealer. There was a note (I think it was in the early 2016 Dealer Order Guide) that there may be a supply shortage of the new 2016 standard wheels and they MAY use the '14 and '15 standard wheels on the '16 if there is a supply shortage.

I have the 18's on my 2015. I'm not thrilled with them, but I must say that I like them a lot more than the new ones. One of my favorite wheels, was the simple, all silver, 5 spoke, 18's on the 2013 S550.
