    Default What Wheels for a SLK 55?

    Well my SLK 55 is in September production, I'm looking to get a set of rims for it. I'm either gonna go with 18s or 19s not quite sure yet but here are the styles I'm looking at. I'm also thinking about running one type of wheel on one side and a different type of wheel on the other side.

    Essen


    Daytona


    Emotion


    Swift


    The SLK is going to be Mars Red and I'm probably goning to get the rims with a Racing Gold finish.... Any input is appreciated

    I really like the daytonas

    One type on right side and one on left, not front and back?

    You doing it so people think it's two different cars?

    Ohh, and congrats. The SLK55 is awesome!!!

    Would you be mad though if they come out with the SLK63?

    Tough choice between the Daytonas and the Swifts. I'd have to say Daytonas overall, they'll probably suit the car rather nicely.

    because you can never see one side of the car at the same time. i dunno my cousin suggested it, so i'm putting it out there.

    I don't think they'll be putting the 63 in the SLK or the C for that matter because why would they put the same engine they'd be using in the ML and the S class in such a smaller and lighter car.It is like the S55 now and the SLK 55. There is no supercharger in the SLK 55 right now

    I think Swift or Emotion, the car is very edgy and busy, so you don't want wheels that are too simple.

    haha, I raced a SLK55 already in my car and my car is a lot quicker. Now if he supercharged his SLK55, that'd be a different story!

    Congrats on the car. Photo shoot!!!
