I'm sure it's been asked lots already..I've searched without definitive tesults..Can anyone tell me if this rim/tire combo will work on an 05 E55 AMG?...Car is also on coilovers..Thanks..

You should be fine.

 

If the offset clears your calipers, then yes. I run slightly wider tires on my E63.

 

You will clear in the front with offset at ET30. Rear at ET35 is fine as well.

 

 

Looking good!

What's the big black box on your license plate?

 

That is most likely a laser shifter. I have them mounted in my grill on my E63, and one on my rear license plate. But the ones that I have aren't that large, they're the size of your finger, and fit in between the fins of the grill.
So they're not easily detectable when looking at the car. now the rear does stand out as it mounted on the license plate. You can just barely make them out, just below the first slat on both the left and right side of the grill. And on the rear plate. The purpose: A laser jammer detects a police laser gun's beam, decodes the signal and transmits bursts of invisible light in reply. If this bogus return signal is at the correct frequency and the same pulse-repetition rate (PRF), it confuses the laser gun. No speed is displayed.

 

Ha..You guys are funny with the comments..

That's actually my EZ Pass tag😂....I do plan on a front plate delete once I find a tow hook cover..And because I love bending the rules..

I'm late to the scene with these cars..I'm coming out of a W210 AMG...It really was the best car I've ever owned...However I'm falling in love with this one quickly..It was owned by a former member here and already has some nice upgrades.. (Longtubes,Split Cooling,,Pulley,,Big HE,,Eurocharged ECU/TCU tunes,BC Coilovers,)and all the other commonly done..This page has helped alot already..Plan to take the car a bit further once I know I can trust it...Still getting familiar with it..Hope to be around awhile...A few more pics of the old and new ride..

 

 

Looks good. ESR wheels with BBS caps? :-)

 

Way to air a guy out😯....Only kidding..Yes they are reps..Not trying to fool anyone..Tires were shot on the stock AMGS so I picked these up from a forum member at the same cost as tires only would have costed alone for the 18s..Tires mounted on the reps were new so rims were almost free..I will be changing out the BBS caps and replacing with AMG caps...Will also be going to a bigger back tires next time around..Lots of room back there....Also planning some C63 muffs...
