2003 e55 wheels and tires

I am new so...hello to all! I just got an e55 2003 to blow around town with and it has aftermarket wheels and tires and I do not like them that much. So, I am looking for a set of originals preferrably with tires and wanted to know what other wheels fit on the car. I saw a set of 2007 SL 550 wheels and tires on craigslist...will they fit? Also, a guy had a set of amg wagon wheels from 2006 or 2007 (do not recall)...will those fit? What are the stock 18" tire sizes for the car and what also fits if I wanted to go with a little bigger tire? I do want a very similar to stock wheel, if I have a hard time finding stock ones. Thanks in advance to all.

Since you're new I'll be nice...

Ask there.

This section is for the W210 E55s and not the W211 (which you have).

hey, if you want a set of original W211 AMG rims, I have a set for sale. Only rims. These came out of a 2004 E55. PM me if you are interested as I can sent you pictures. I only have rims. I believe the tire size are the same as the W210 E55 - 245/40x18 fronts and 275/35x18 rears.

07 SL550 wheels will fit but may rub a bit in the back if you lower it
06 or 07 amg wagon wheels from E class will fit also

stock size for 03-09 E55/E63 AMG is 245/40/18 front and 265/35/18 rear. members have put 285/30/18 in the rear, but I don't recommend it. Widest I would go is 275/35/18 because it is only a 9in wide from on the stock wheels in the rear. The 07 SL wheels come with 9.5 rears and 285 wide rear tires.
