New wheels on the 500E
I just put 18x8.5 on the front and 18x9.5 on the back of my 500E (see attached pics). I just replaced the original wheels and tires (the tires were the original 10/1992 manufacture date tires!) Ride and handling is superb, although I am a little wary on the crappy potholed roads we have in Houston. The tires 235/40/ZR18 and 265/35/ZR18's came off a Barbus E430 that I trashed the Brabus Monoblock V 2 pc rims on. The bottom line is, if anyone is in the market for a set of OEM 8-hole 16" rims or a set of Barbus 18 rims let me know. The Brabus 9.5" back wheels are OK ( some curb rash), the front 8.5" rims have some rash too, one is unfixable the other is OK. Will send pick of any wheels on request.

Lorinser LM6 "style"
Rims on now are Lorinser LM6 reproductions ($799) I just could not justify $6500 for the real deal. The Brabus MB V 2 pc are sitting in the garage feeling sorry for themselves.

... and it has a Push-to-Pass button.
Nice wheels - I've been wondering how those wheels would look on a 500E. I like. Great price, BTW.
