Who is the Fitment King here?

I am looking for someone with extensive knowledge of wheel/tire/offset fitment for the w219 platform. I've read 10+ "will this fit" threads but none relate to aggressive fitment.

Thanks!!

^i like the look. If it had an elevated wing it'd look like a 4 door Countach

Thanks guys!

Can you both provide a photo at more of an angle (Front & Back) so I can see flushness with the fender?

AndreNY, what are your tire specs?

Also, are your fenders rolled? You guys rubbin at all (even hard cornering & bumps?)

Sir-Boost- I actually very surprised you're clearing suspension in the rear. The current setup I'm running (purchased the vehicle with this setup) in the rear is a 20x10.5 wheel ET30 with a 295/25/20. I just blew a tire due to rubbing suspension. MY wheel calculator says your setup would set in 15mm further (towards suspension/chassis) then mine and be 21mm higher (from the hub). Have you ever had any rubbing issues. Have you grinded anything to make more room? Are you running the K-MAC camber adjustment kit (or similar)?

this is the only decent angle shot I have, im running 245/35 front and 285/30 rear, my next set up will be 20X10.5" front and 20X13" rear
I have ZERO rubbing even with 4 ppl in the car, front fenders were fully rolled and slightly pulled, while rear quarters were fully rolled, im Static I removed the garbage Cramatic suspension and im riding on Coilovers so this is my driving height

We have a bunch of fitments. Depends on the tire size. Here is a set of 20x9.5/20x11.5

I am looking for both wheel and tires specs including offset. Just having one without the other doesn't tell me overall fitment (diameter & width). I appreciate the input so far guys!

What part of the suspension is it hitting? My tire due to being so tall would rub the plastic inner wheelhouse trim all the way on the bottom in the back. I tweaked it about 10mm or so with a heat gun and it was good to go.

This pic is still on the rack, so it drops down a little more and cambers in at the top a degree or two. Stock suspension/control arms etc.

this is mine:

20x10 squared setup, ET20 and ET30. and that is driving height, can't go lower...

I still have to mount a spacer in the back.

This should be no issue at all, also remember its not just wheels size and offset its all what tire you use, certain tires run skinny while others run wide (same size)

Exactly, this thread has helped very much. Thank you to all who have submitted your photos and specs. What a sick set of cars posted here! My CLS55 AMG came with Vossen 083 wheels and I currently am just getting the fitment right until I save enough to buy some wheels that fit my style better Here is where I'm at in the rear.

This is the rear with 20x10.5 ET20 (ET30-10mm spacers) and 295/25/20 tires. I ordered two sets of tires to see what works best. There is plenty of room for the fatter 305's so those are getting mounted today! Those pics to come later!
