19's on an SLK R171
Do you think 19in wheels will fit on the new SLK without any rubbing issue etc? anyone have any experience with thie etc? also... what is the bolt pattern setup? thanks.

I think they look hot on the Safety Car, but I'd check with a service center before buying anything. Just something to think about: The Safety Car doesn't have a commercially available suspension. It's not the standard AMG suspension that one would get, so there may be some travel differences.
Either way, I'm sure it can be done, but a custom suspension may be involved. But would that be entirely bad?
