Winter rims on '55
According to SLK manual, 17 x 7.5 ET37 is recommended for '55 as winter rims.

Will 17x7.5 ET35 fit? Does either ET35 or ET37 need spacers or clear brakes without any problems? Thanks.

RE: Winter rims on '55
I have the 10 spoke OEM 17's on my SLK55 for winter and they clear with no difficulty. The front SLK55 rotors have a "hat" type spacer built in.

Thanks. I understand bolt pattern is 5x112. Anyone know if 17x7.5 with 5x114.3 + 45 mm fit '55?
