Will SL55 Turbine Wheels fit E55 211W??

Just wondering. Might be a cool look. I know some folks hate them, but I think they might look interesting. Pain to clean, though.

YES!

Damn they just added every 'smiley face' in the world to board, Whoa, too many, Scary!

Now back to the wheels. The Styling V is:

18X8.5 et30
18X9.5 et33

I don't see why not. The W211 Double Spoke 2 Pc are:

19X8.5 et30
19X9.5 et31

Yes - In the catalog

In my catalog of the W211 - first page of the accessories section, there is a W211 with the turbine wheels and a bike rack ! Silver one ... Page 50 in my catalog - ofcourse its not the US one..

thanks a lot for the pic...i was wondering how they'd look on the E. They are currently listed on mbusa as a 3000 dollar option for the E500 (and possibly the E320)

i think they look good
but they need to be in 19 or so
the lower profile tires the better it'll bring out the rims

That picture actually appears to be a different multi-spoke wheel than the SL55:

The pic from the catalog looks like a 2-pc wheel....which I would assume its called Styling V multi-piece??? Something nobody has any info about it.

The pic that Ben shows is the Styling V one-piece from the SL55.

And yes, those wheels will fit on a W211. But I would rather choose Style IV one piece or multi-piece.
