New 2005 Titan Grey 19" AMG Rims retrofitted for E55
Where did you get them? What kind of tires are you going to put on them?
AMG does make a 19" rim that fits our E55's that is the same look as the 65's. The only difference is that it is not gunmetal which can paint if you want that look. I have them on my E55 for the past 8 months.
Enjoy
Yeah I am getting the same ones for my 03 that is still missing all 4 wheels. I am putting these rims on with Michelin ps2

It will fit but it is not correct. The wheels will be spaced too far outside of the wheel well.
I remember someone a while ago on this board when the E55 first came out that posted pictures with this set up and you could see that it was not correct.
No modification needed does not mean they are correct.

I ask the same question. Why would the parts dept. of any MB dealership sell anyone something that clearly will NOT fit???????

Harris,
You mean the new S65 (due out later this year) wheels should fit Not the SL65 and CL65 which donot fit our E55's.

I would find it pretty amazing if these wheels weighed under 30lbs.
Id just buy the TSW look alikes for $1000 and have them painted..
Vic55: yes, there is an offset ready of the 65 wheels for the E - use the SL ones. These wheels weigh around 40lbs.
Schiznick: the SL65 gun-metal wheels have an offset (19x8.5 ET30/19x9.5 ET31) than the same 19" multi-piece wheel (19x8.5 ET25/19x10 ET28) offer as an option for the SL55. These wheels will fit onto a E55 perfectly.
MBH: the S65 and CL65 shares the same version (offset) of the gun-metal 19" multi-piece wheel. The SL65 have a different offset made specifically for the car (which can be fitted on a E as well).
Rev It Up: perhaps you should get the ones made for the SL65 and fit them onto your E. It will save you a lot of hassle and time. You tuner does not know what they are doing/selling.
You are right on. My mistake. I checked with my tuner and he is using the new SL65 wheels. Thanks for the further clarification/correction. I will post pics when I get them on. Can't wait.

Thanks a bunch for clearing the air on this. WOW I had no idea a SL65 wheel and tire would fit our E55's. Is this the case for the front and rear wheels of the 65?

Just one more clarification: the SL65 wheels (yes, front and rear) would fit on a E55, NOT the tires! You need to get different tire sizes for the E55.
Wheels look great - how 'bout some pics mounted on that Platinum Blue beauty?
Enjoyed meeting last week - let's do it again when you're back in town!
