This place is a joke.
Those wheels were standard, if not an option, on the E55 in Europe. I've never seen one in the U.S. with those wheels from the factory. The SL500 and SL55 had those style wheels in the U.S.

Yes, sport package wheels, but stay with a 04+ anyway. Many improvements were made for the 04 model year.
