Will these fit

I check and based on what I look up it appears it will, but the E55 is not listed as one of the vehicles that will fit, but it says that it will fit E63.
I was under the impression that what wheels fit the E63 will fit the E55. I’m I wrong?

I have attached the specs for the rims in question

Depends on the clearance for the front brakes. That’s a large factor . I have purchased wheels that interfere with the brakes.

The wheels are the OEM 5 stars, but it says it fits the E63 not the 55

They will probably fit then. The E63 has 6 pot calipers (360mm discs) vs the 8 pot calipers (360mm discs) on the E55.

E55



E63

That white W211 E55 on the picture has 6 piston calipers from the W212 E63/ W204 C63 Black Series though
