Wheel fitment help
The AMG Monoblocks are 17 inch wheels, does anyone have the stock offset and width offhand? I'm doing research to see what width wheel would fit. I want to fit a fairly wide tire in the back, 265-275 range. I'm looking at these Work Eurolines that are 18x8 +38 and 18x9 +45 in the rear. A friend told me I could fit a 265 on there.
One concern, these wheels are 5x114.3, and the CLK is 5x112. I can use "wobble studs" but how safe is this to run? I love the looks of the CLK but I also enjoy its performance.

Yes sure, wobble bolts are safe to use for:-
5x100>>5x112 or 5x114.3>>5x112

Awesome. I found that thread, but I wanted to hear some other opinions on wobble bolts. Just wasn't sure how stable they were to use.
Now hopefully I can get some insight on fitment. Thanks again!
