They also come with the factory tires from Mercedes that they charge about $475 a piece for at the Stealership.

Not trying to flop a sale here but be careful of the rear tire size with your 4-matic. You should be within 3% of each other diameter wise. That means MB factory 265 rear will not work. You will need a 275 rear as a minimum.

2007 E550 4matic
It does appear there "could" be complications with staggered setup on the 4matic, not so much with size if you have proper offset to accomodate it properly as to no disturb the handling and of course proper clearances, but having the different series tires and therefore different diameters on the 4matic, is "problematic". Many establishments have corporate polices in place that they will ONLY replace 4 tires on my car ! While they recognize there is a 3/32 tolerance they wont replace tires on a MB 4matic unless they do all 4, you dont like it, you take it else where. I have spoke to more than one nationwide chain what has that policy in place. Now that said, I have 3 family members that work at a MB dealership, 2 technicians and 1 service manager. They tell me that's crap and they can be changed and that the establishments are blowing it out of proportion abit, but yes in deed there is a tolerance that needs to be watched and they expressed for the life of my mechanical parts, they recommended that I stay with same size wheels and tires on all 4 corners of the car. While they get DEEP discounts even purchasing on a family/employee discount the new MB wheels are very pricey (like any manufacturer) but true AMG wheels are just rediculous, $2400 each !!! my price is still $1600 each.....too much for my blood. I appreciate all the offers and everyone is sending nice pics, nice wheels, but so far they are all staggered or if not with the case of one set the offset is off too much for me to be comfortable.

thanks......still looking 18x8.5" X 4 my factory offset is 38mm
