PP2 Owners: Check you have the right OEM rims front and back. I had 3 front tire rims

[Fly2High]

I created a post in the general S550 section that probably should move here.

Here is the link :

Long story short, my PP2 has 3 front tire rims (19" x 10.5") and 1 rear tire rim (19" x 11").

You can look at the PP2 addendum booklet to tell them apart based on valve stem. I have photos in the thread and a link to the addendum.

I discovered it when I had a set of winter tires installed and look at the valve stem and found out I had one incorrect rim.

Beware!!!!

So who has my other rear rim ?
It is possible someone has 3 19" x 11" and one 19" x 10.5".

Dealer is working on correction.

Since the front 10.5 inch wheels have a +24 offset compared to +48 for the rear, a front PP2 wheel mounted on the rear will stick out a lot more than the wheel on the other side. I would think you would have noticed the poke before the valve stem.

Who goes to check the amount their tires stick out? I didn't even think to do it. I never thought to compare the left and right rear tire 'poke'.

I would not intentionally check it but given the significant difference in offset I think the poke on one side would be very noticeable.

I clicked on the link and saw the pics you posted in the other thread. Looks pretty obvious to me.

That is only so obvious when looking down the side of the car. When looking straight at the side, it wasn't.

OK, so they got me for a period of 2 months. I finally caught it.

Dealership is working on getting me a replacement.

Checked mine, all good. Thanks for the heads up!
