Yes

I have an '04 SL500 with the Sport Package, and I think the wheels look great on the car (although this is a topic of much debate on these boards! lol :-))

The wheel is called the 5-Hole Wheel Style K and can be ordered directly from MB.

I have to admit, they've grown on me. At first, I thought they looked cheap in the broshure and in pictures but, now, it's hard to imagine the car without them. The 5 spoke wheels seem dated to me now. The new wheels look much better in person...

My next decision is wether to up the sizes of my wheel/tire package to handle the RennTech upgrades. They recomend the 20" ten spoke forged aluminum keep from spinning the wheels under fast acceleration but, they aint cheap! At my current rate, I may have to make a decision sooner rather than later as my tires are already showing quite a bit if wear! ...it's a blast though!!
