Will be interesting to see if these can squeeze under the arches or not, and if so, what tyre size to go for

Mercedes S Class 5-spoke alloys

If they fit I think they could look really good

they will look well nice!

those look great, much nicer than the audi wheels IMO. i thought the offset would be wrong for a mercedes wheel?

If you re-did those in gunmetal that would be perfect..

they will look well nice!

They do indeed !

Why didnt you go for the audi fat fives then Bryan? Nice looking wheels non the less

Just go for the Audis.............

225/40. 235 is a bad idea.

Prefer the Audis myself, are the merc wheels heavier?

I've not tried weighing them yet, but they feel lighter than the Calitos, but nowhere near as light as Pro Race 1.2s

Having spoken to Nick "The Wheel Whore" Perry (wega3k) at the weekend, It looks as though the extra width and offset will mean I'd have no clearance under load without pulling the bodywork out, and I'm not planning on doing that :no:

Which means they'll probably be back up on ebay soon

I must learn not to buy on impulse

I thought you'd purchased a set of wheels, not onimpulse

Somethings just arent meant to be Bryan

I had an old E class merc with 19" AMG CLK split rims on it, needless to say even though the car wasnt lowered and it was unloaded, speedbumps were a challege. Not sure if it was a height issue or width issue, certainly was a noisy crunch issue. Looked nice though

but nowhere near as light as Pro Race 1.2s

Your just teasing me now :p

AMG wheels maybe, but not boggo S-Class wheels.
