The Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57S commands attention on the road, but factory wheels rarely do justice to a vehicle of this stature.
The Maybach 57S weighs around 2,735 kg and carries a twin-turbo V12. Factory wheels on a vehicle this size tend to look undersized, leaving visual gaps in the wheel arches that undermine the car's proportions. A set of properly specified custom forged wheels — filling the arches, matching the body's visual mass — changes the entire stance.
The Bete Noire Ver1.1 is a twelve-spoke directional design built specifically for the Mercedes-Benz Maybach 57S's proportions. Twelve slender spokes sweep clockwise from the centre cap, each one gently curved to create a sense of rotation even when stationary. The directional pattern demands left and right sets, but the visual payoff on a car this long is substantial. In polished chrome it complements the car's factory paint palette, but the full range of finishes means you are not locked into a single look.
| Bolt pattern | 5x112 |
| Recommended diameter | 20" to 22" |
| Width range | 9.5J front / 10.5J rear |
| Offset range | ET25 - ET45 |
| Centre bore | 66.6 mm |
| Material | 6061-T6 forged aluminium |
| Weight | ~30% lighter than equivalent cast wheel |
A square setup works well for this platform, keeping tyre rotation simple and inventory manageable. If you are considering an upgrade from cast or flow-formed wheels, the weight saving from forged aluminium improves every dynamic aspect of the car — from braking distances to mid-corner balance.
The Bete Noire Ver1.1 is part of Hodoor's AI wheel design programme. The system generates over 1,000 unique wheel concepts per day, each engineered to be manufacturable as a forged monoblock. You are not choosing from a static catalogue — the AI produces designs tuned to a specific car's dimensions, brake clearances, and visual character. The design phase is free. You only pay when a concept moves into production.
If none of the AI-generated options suit your build, our in-house designer works from hand sketches or reference images. Either route leads to the same CNC-machined 6061-T6 billet, the same balancing and inspection process, and the same four-to-eight-week production timeline. More on choosing the right wheel size for your build.
Will these clear the factory brakes on the Maybach 57S?
Yes. The designs accommodate the 57S factory caliper package at both 20" and 22" diameters without spacers.
Can these fit a Maybach S-Class (W223)?
The W223 Maybach shares the 5x112 bolt pattern and 66.6 mm centre bore. Width and offset may differ depending on body style. Email us your VIN for a confirmed spec sheet.
Are forged wheels strong enough for a car this heavy?
Forged 6061-T6 aluminium is stronger per kilogram than cast or flow-formed alternatives. The forging process aligns the grain structure, producing a wheel that handles the Maybach's considerable kerb weight without issue. More detail in our forged vs cast wheels guide.
