Hi,
I'm not a Mercedes expert and I could use some help. I bought a compact spare tire and wheel on E-Bay a couple of years ago that I was told was a dealer option for an E55. It is a black alloy 10 spoke 18" wheel with a 5x112 bolt circle. It has a 175-55-18 Vredstein inflatable compact spare tire on it. I made a custom adapter and toted it around in a hot rodded Cadillac I have (I wanted to minimize weight with a spare that fit in the original carpeted tire cover).

I'm now selling this wheel/tire on E-Bay and one person asked me if I could VERIFY this wheel IS a real E55 optional wheel. I never doubted that is was for an E55. Does anyone on this forum have this option? If so, does my wheel fit the description? If you want to see a photo of the wheel do an EBay search for E55 compact spare tire.

Any help/confirmation would be appreciated. I don't want to mislead anyone in the unlikely case I am wrong about this wheel's origin.

Thanks!
