Quick Spacer Q
Hi,
Asking this question for a friend who just picked up a bone stock 2017 CLS 63S and who's not good at interneting.
What is the correct front/rear spacer setup to make the wheels flush with fenders?
Thanks

Those two threads are for a 2012 CLS550 and a 2017 CLS 350 ... unless I missed the info in those threads, I can't imagine those cars come with the same wheels and offsets as the 2017 63S.
Perhaps I am wrong, but I I'm just looking for someone who has done it on that specific car and can just give me a definitive answer so I can pass it along.
Thanks

Anyhow. W212s all pretty much have the same body, AMG or not (supposedly the front fenders of the E63's are a bit wider, but
) I doubt very much it's any different for the W218. After reading this other thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/w218/4416...2012-help.html It seems like your friend is gonna have to find out which wheels he has since it seems like they came with a few different options. Hope someone w/ first hand experience chimes in.

LOL! I didn't mean to imply you didn't search. Just stating I did a quick search.

I just went through this and OP is correct, the spacer setups are definitely NOT the same. I ordered what were supposed to be the correct front spacers for my 2016 CLS63 and they didn’t even fit on the hub. I need to dig up it up OP but I will reply to this with the parts and part numbers (spacers and bolts) for at least the rear end.
