new ML270 wheels

[Andy W]

I am thinking of putting a new set of wheels on my ML270, does anyone know what is the standard off set of the wheels, is it 35, 40 or 50?

The standard wheels have 17" rims, I was thinking of going to 18 or 19" as it still needs to be capable of getting down dirt tracks and across fields etc sometimes quite muddy.

The standard 17" wheels (8 or 8.5" wide) are 52 offset.
Be careful if you put any non Mercedes wheels on as they are normally around 35 offset and tend to stick out a bit
They also need to be the correct load rating.

Thanks Mactech, I wonder if to just get mine refurbed, sound like new aftermarket wheels could possibly spell trouble.
