I am trying to decide if I want to replace my stock staggered setup with the SL55 AMG rims. Seems like those rims are little porkers but before I pull the trigger I would like to know what our stock rims weigh, F & R....

I know the weight of the SL55 rims so I just need our weights

 

~29lbs

I am running the 18" but 9.5 inch in the rear and 9 inch in the front and love it. The difference in weight (from wider rims and tires) is minor for me, since the handling is so much better. If you stay with stock tire sizes, then your car's balance will not change and so you may notice the lag more. After all, going to 255 / 275 isn't much of a jump.

 

My rims are 8.5 F and 9.5 R which is the stock W211 AMG Rim width, is'nt it. How can your 9.5 and 9 both weigh 29lbs.

 

I thought the rear stock E55 rims are 9.0

 

The fronts are 8s (8.5 on the E63)
The rears are 9s

27lbs fronts, 29.5ishlbs rears

 

ok, thanks man.

 

would it make much difference in 1/4 mile if i changed my stock cls55 19s to the stock e55 18s?

 

you want traction my friend
u need wider rears and sticker tires...you will still have issues, but it will help lots!

a member said renntech toe links were great help..but i can not find much more feed back on em

as for wheel weight i have a table with them all on will try and find it...

 

thanks it would be nice to see how much heavier these 19s are
