If I'm not mistaken the rims on the safety car are 19" so I don't think there would be a problem.

That's a nice safety car. I am planning on putting this set of rims to the SLK arriving early next year.

I am getting them from MB dealer and I think they probably have an offset for the W203 since the C class medical car uses the same set of rims.

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?
