Footage of the SUV cruising along the road shows that the tyres of the SUV are still firmly planted to the ground. What makes it appear as if it was floating above the ground is a visual illusion created by the custom rims, dubbed the floater rims.

There are wheels that are hub-centric i.e. the wheel is manufactured with a centre bore to fit precisely onto a specific vehicle and in these cases we would not supply spigot rings as they would be unnecessary. If you take a wheel and cut it in half and draw a line down the centre of the width of the alloy wheel the offset will be the distance between the back face of the wheel and the centre line that you have just drawn.
It is crucial that the centre bore of the wheel locates properly on the lip on the hub of the vehicle to get a perfect fit. Most wheels work on a spigot ring locating system because most wheels have a centre bore bigger than the size of the hub lip allowing them to fit a wider range of cars. By adhering to these sizes you can ensure that you only order wheels that that will fit your Mercedes correctly, and are safe to use on your vehicle. This gives you the flexibility to change your wheels for a set that are a bigger or smaller diameter (e.g. upgrading from 17″ wheels to 19″ wheels), or just a different style.

Whereas it can be a pain to clean each individual spoke of a wheel, it would only take a few seconds for someone to clean these wheels. You also wouldn’t have to worry about brake dust as all of it will likely gather on the inside of the wheel and not visible from the outside.
