Mercedes may have a brand-new G-Class, and it’s true that it’s vastly superior to its predecessor, but some special editions of the latter are still notable.
For example, the G550 442. Purchasing one of these vehicles indicates that money is not an issue, and if you’re a mega-celebrity, you won’t hesitate to have it customised.
Kylie Jenner is the proud owner of this particular G550 442. The youthful reality TV personality, model, and entrepreneur entrusted West Coast Customs with the tangerine paint job and other modifications, while Forgiato was responsible for sourcing and installing the new wheels and tyres.
According to the wheel manufacturer, the rims are from their Terra Series, measure 24 inches in diameter and 14 inches in breadth, and are wrapped in 37-inch tyres. The spokes have the same finish as the rest of the SUV, and the rims have a black appearance.
You may have already noticed Kylie Jenner perched on a Lamborghini in one of the photos; it appears to be her Aventador SV Roadster. The Italian supercar has the same orange hue as the Mercedes, and when the 21-year-old woman posted a photo of it on social media last summer, it was sitting on a set of black rims with spokes.
This is not Jenner’s first encounter with a Mercedes-Benz G-Class, as she previously owned a G63 AMG with a peculiar black velvet cover and other custom components.
