S55 wheels fit on a clk430?

vstaffa · 01-19-2012, 01:21 AM

I have a 99 clk430 and I found a set of what the seller believes to be s55 amg wheels they are 18"x8.5/9.5
These may or may not be from an s55 and if they are I don't know what year but I do know that the offsets are et46 rear and et44 front
Will these wheels fit on my stock clk?
If not would they fit with spacers? Any info is appreciated I'm not good with this stuff thanks

You'll need spacers -- something around 10mm would give good fitment, 15mm would give aggressive fitment. A moderate offset for 8.5/9.5 is ET35 front and back for the W208, though I'm prefer something more aggressive like ET30.

Ok thank you. I'd rather not buy spacers too so what're my options for wheels. I like the e55 18s those fit right? Any other suggestions? I like the stock look 18" aero ii

The monos will fit well -- probably one of my favorite wheels on a 208.

The SL55 multispokes will be more flush (you may need to roll the front fenders) and imo are the best looking OEM wheel on the CLK.
