It looks photoshop. I dont think you can lower your car that much with 20's. It would make it way too impossible to trun your front wheel, and your rear's will rub like crazy. but i must say, that pic ^ looks nice with that drop.

you know, does anyone know how much you can actually cut into the wheelwell to fit the 20's for a very low drop without rubbing? would that affect the car in any way as in ride quality? i love your 20s imelda. i am still trying to figure a way to get some 20s on mines.

you will need ...20x7.5 et+37 or 20x8.0 et+35 with 245/30r20pirelli pzero nero you then can lower your car up to 2.5 inches.

Can you put 20" rims on a CLK 320 2004 without lowering?

The ride quality would be god-awful because
A: you would have to have long tread life rubber bands for tires and
B: the springs would have no room to compress mixed with a factory strut that will be blown in about 3 days.

CLK 320
Think I saw 2 or 3 guys throw 20" on their car. 1 looked pretty dope with a drop, but he pretty much no tire on 'em, so I can imagine how terrible of a drive it would be, and pretty sure he had the widest turns ever.

The others looked like they were about to head to a monster truck rally.
