Those are 19" Accessory wheels for the SL500/550. Or SL500/550 with AMG styling package.

They are 19" AMG Spec wheels that came standard on AMG CLS Models and were optional on a few others. Bolt Pattern: 5 x 112mm Size is: 19 x 8.5

OK thanks guys but nobody is answering my question. How do I get these on the crossfire? I don't mean to sound rude but I know nothing about wheel sizes or offsets, I just know what looks good.

What size do I have to buy these to make them fit without rubbing or other crap?

thanks

i had 19 by 8.5 in the front with a 30 mm offset and a 20 by 9.5 rear with a 35. if I had to do it again I would go 19x8.5 35 and 20x9.5 45. tire sizes is the problem dont go wider then a 30 up front and you should be fine

Well here is some additional info from tire rack that helps with the offset question:

The offset of a wheel is the distance from its hub mounting surface to the centerline of the wheel. The offset can be one of three types (measured in millimeters).*
Zero Offset

The hub mounting surface is even with the centerline of the wheel.
Positive

The hub mounting surface is toward the front or wheel side of the wheel. Positive offset wheels are generally found on front wheel drive cars and newer rear drive cars.
Negative

The hub mounting surface is toward the back or brake side of the wheels centerline. "Deep dish" wheels are typically a negative offset.
If the offset of the wheel is not correct for the car, the handling can be adversely affected. When the width of the wheel changes, the offset also changes numerically. If the offset were to stay the same while you added width, the additional width would be split evenly between the inside and outside. For most cars, this won't work correctly. We have test fitted thousands of different vehicles for proper fitment. Our extensive database allows our sales staff to offer you the perfect fit for your vehicle.
