Weekend before last, I used the 55 as the bridal car for my daughter's wedding. Couldn't think of a better way to get her there.

My two beautiful girls with my beautiful AMG...

Everybody has their own taste. But I always get glowing compliments on my Ruby interior, it's classy & very sporty at the same time. But if you're conservative, stick with all charcoal. FYI, the merlot used in the 211 E55 does not look like Ruby. It's a kind of plum pinkish wine color, and is a little lighter than Ruby. The Berry Red used in the SL is a bright red and quite flashy.

I don't actually know. they were on the car when i bought it. there was no paperwork relating to the wheels with the car and there is no manufacturers markings on the inside of the wheel. i have tried google searching by using an image but not found anything that matches up closely enough to have a definitive answer.

Ah, well in that case this information might be of use. These should be your wheels. I've also seen them branded as Felgen and either way, it seems like they're an eBay brand and have a very small Instagram presence.

Have you had any issues with quality or fitment? Despite them being generic, no brand wheels, the look and specifically the lip is very appealing to me. Price isn't bad either at $1,400 a set.

they look close, but hard to be sure from just a photo.

i have had no issues in my ownership. the wheels have had some quite heavy bumps from poor quality roads and have not been damaged. one of them has a dent in the lip but that was there from when i ought the car so no idea how it got there. there is also minimal rash so i assume the car has always run tyres with a good sized rim protector.

i love the look, just wish they were 19's instead of 20's as i would prefer a bigger side wall, especially on our rural roads.

These wheels due suffer as they age, the pressed on stainless steel lip tends to get dings in them.
And their easily scratched, by abrasive brake pad compounds, road debris and rock dings.
My suggestion, is to have them wrapped in Paint Protection Film (PPF) when you first buy them.




I had these wheels on both of my 2007 E63's. But changed wheels completely on the Black E63


If you look closely you can see the abrasion. And dings at the top and bottom.

yep, i have found that to be the case too.

i have someone interested in swapping me for a set of 18" wheels off 2012 E500. they are a genuine AMG wheel. we are going to trial fit them next Monday to see if they fit over my brakes and if mine fit under his suspension. if so, we will swap. then i can breathe easy on the rubbish rural roads here till i decide what 19" wheels i want to buy.

they are euromonarch 63 wheels . they are cheaper 1 piece wheels that mimics the 3 piece look. it was on the cheaper side back in the days but one of the better looking wheels on e55. I had em on my first benz a clk350
