AMG Wheel Fitment Question.

The W210 E55 I was waiting for is almost ready for purchase and I'm getting the itch. I'm not enamoured with the monoblocks but I've always liked the 211 E55 wheels and was wondering if someone could give me a definitive answer about whether or not the 211 AMG wheels will just bolt up without requiring any type of spacer. Can someone help? btw, I did a search and gave up after 20 minutes of reading. Thanks.

They should be a direct fit except that the bolts you'll need are different. They are a hybrid between the two models. They sell them at the link below.
If you call them up and explain what you are doing they will give you the exact bolts you need.

You can also find aftermarket dual 5 spoke wheels that look identical and will fit, in case you have trouble finding genuine W211 E55 rims.

18x9.0 et35 rear

What are the specs for the W211 E55 OEM rims?

FYI, W210 OEM lug bolts: 12mm x 1.5 x 40mm (1.5"). I believe W211 lug bolts differ: W211 OEM lug nuts: 14mm x ? x ? You may require custom lug bolts due to thread design. Also, keep in mind that OEM have ball seat heads vs. aftermarket acorn heads. Good luck
