Review on πŸ”˜ Verde Parallax Gloss Black Wheel (19 x 8.5 inches / 5 x 112 mm, 30 mm Offset) by David Blackstock

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Check the clearance between the rear-mounted valve stem and the caliper.

These 19" wheels have a valve stem at the back of the rim - although this doesn't seem to be a problem, when the wheel spins on the new Mercedes GL350 SUV the valve stem will hit the caliper - check the clearance between the caliper and the rim - if it's that tight these wheels may not fit you - also a tire changer generally cannot be used to fit tires onto these rims as the deep groove is on the back of the rim where the valve stem is located. Port rather than front - generally tires require hand tools to be fitted - I would recommend fitting a wheel up to 20" IF the valve stem is at the rear of the rim - nice wheels...but not suitable for me

Pros
  • TPMS COMPATIBLE. Designed to accommodate tire pressure monitoring system sensors to help drivers avoid unsafe operating conditions.
Cons
  • Not everything fits
