Mercedes-Benz Wheels

All About Wheels for Mercedes-Benz

Put simply, wheels are the mechanisms that rotate on the axles of your Mercedes-Benz vehicle. They build the mechanical leverage, multiply the force, and create the motive power to spin its tires. There's much more to them, though. Here are the basics.

For one, they're made of one of several high-strength metals -- usually, steel or aluminum alloy. They can also be made of ultra-resilient polymers like carbon fiber.

Available sizes, measured in diameters, range from around 15 inches to 20 inches or more. For example, one of the most popular sizes for AMG® wheels is 18 inches.

Several factors determine wheel style -- the number of spokes, whether they're single-spoke, twin- spoke, or multi-spoke, and the climate and/or weather that they're made for, for instance.

As for available colors, OEM and aftermarket brand alike can offer far too many choices to name. Generally, though, wheels for Mercedes-Benz models are usually color-matched to the make's specific models.

Key Takeaways

• Buy OEM wheels for guaranteed fitment. Those Mercedes-Benz makes come both custom-fit to and colorized for your car or SUV, right from the start. Mercedes-Benz rims do, too.
• Order the correct type and size wheels for your model. The wrong size, or even putting the right size on wrong, can increase your risk of an accident. Compatibility is important: it determines alignment, acceleration, braking, overall handling, and even speedometer calibration.
