LS's came with 18 inch wheels correct? Guy has a 04 with 70 k on it in cleveland area for $18 ML model. Anyone near Cleveland? Too bad they get alot of snow.

Yeah it was an option anyways. I've been looking to swap my 17s for a set of 18s.....should probably ask this guy lol. Does it have all the proper service records? Link?

Not all MLs with 18" wheels had the sports suspension. Check for the badge behind the front wheel openings.

CarGuy89

Yup. I once saw a factory option sheet from a private seller that had the 18s as a very reasonably priced stand-alone option. Since the 18s fit the car so well, I'm surprised I don't see all 430s with those rims.

I prefer 17" personally, because of more comfortable ride and suspension components longevity.

Many, maybe most, of the 05 and 06 LS's in FL had the optional 18" wheels but no touring suspension.

I'm not sure I'm pleased with the 18" on my newly acquired 06 430. I just put a new set of the Conti Extreme Contacts on them and the ride improved somewhat over the older Dunlops - but it's still a little firmer than I'd like. I exchanged the 18's with the 16's off my older 400 and got a noticable improvement in the ride - but it sure looked strange; so I swapped them back.

It had service records to 38 k and guy said he went to Jiffy Lube after that. He said it was his wife's car, I didn't pry deeper if you know what I mean, and he said the rims had some rash. Said it was mostly city miles. Its on auto trader
