They look like either 19 or 20 inch. If you like those, check these out, they look similar.

I thought Brabus was mainly for Benz? Just like Hammon is for BMW and L-Sportline is for Lexus.

I think you guys are close but not quite, those are the L-sportline Model 3 wheels. Check out the website, lsportline.com.

i agree with gsnav, just be cause the brabus look like they have an edge on each spoke, and these whels look very rounded on the spoke all around

I don't think it's the Lsportline III. The model III's only come in 18's, they bow out slightly, and they don't have the small holes in between the lug holes like those on the GS. I think they're the Brabus MB IV.

Those are definitely Brabus wheels...check out the size ratio of the center cap to the location of the bolt holes...on the Lsporline, they're further from the center cap.

Also, the Brabus wheels have the bevel around the edge where the Lsportline doesn't.

And like Zushwa said, the Lsportline only comes in 18"...those DEFINITELY are not 18" wheel on that GS...
