Hello, world! First Mercedes, coming from a Cadillac ATS.
Picked up this E43AMG last week, so far I love it!
Wheels question which I"m doing some searching on -- she came equipped with the optional 20" AMG staggered wheels, I like the look.
I'm in the market for a second set of winter-season wheels, perhaps the OEM 19" wheels for this model, and decent resources to find those besides full sticker at a dealer? Good alternatives?
At the very least, I need one spare wheel that will mount.
Brief research suggests that these wheels are different from both non-AMG W213 E-class models, and also different from W205 C-series models, so I might have fewer options.
It's OK to me if the spare is a "B" fitment that's not perfect but would work for a short period, however it's not clear to me if a regular E-class wheel, even a larger optional 18-19" model, would even properly clear brakes and suspension. TIA.
I would highly consider tirerack and calling them.. I had OEM 20s but bought aftermarket 19s for winter and almost everyone liked them better. And they were cheap compared to some of the options out there. Just sharing... the pic is of the 19s...
