18 AMG Alloys From E to S class?

[mabrams]

Would 18 AMG alloys from an E-Class fit my w140?

Thanks,

Mark.

W140 has a 50+ offset. The E Class has a 38(?). THAT is a big gap. Probably need spacers to have zero problems. But hang out, I could be wrong.

if you post this on the "wheel and tire" forum on this website, you will get a professional and correct reply from Luke who works at tire rack.

Ahh, yes, Luke. He WAS very professional and knowledgable when he sold me my Carlsson's (when tire rack was closing out the line) and answered several offset questions for me prior to when I was exploring other options. Mabrams, the very BEST thing for your S-class is to order a rim specifically offest for it. My rims won't straight fit any other Benz. Merecedes never recommends spacers and Luke recommends nothing more than 5 mm thick. That will keep it hub-centric An E Class wheel will require a 10mm spacer. If you can get a lest a 40+ offset wheel and lug hardware, (as mine are)it will fit fine. But as previously suggested, a talk with Luke is well worth you while. Feel free to copy this and ask him to confirm. Good luck [^]
