FS: Two 18x9.5 CLS Wheels with 305/35/18 Nitto 555R Drag Radials
I have two 18x9.5 CLS wheels with 305/35/18 Nitto 555R drag radials on them. This has been a trusty street setup for me, but I am going to go another route soon and have to make room in the garage.
These have about 7 passes on the track and 6 on the street, and couple hundred miles of driving. Tires are still in very good shape, I will tkae photos of remaining tread over the weekend.
These will fit an E55 AMG and CLS55 AMG. My E55 is lowered by a decent amount so these rubbed a bit on the outside - but only when the car was lowered, would not rub when it's raised. CLS will have no issues at all, and stock height E55 will be fine too. Slight rub did not bother me
As far as grip goes, I saw consistent 1.75 60' and 11.6-11.7 passes. On the street these things are monsters. Here is a clip of me launching vs a 996 Twin Turbo which is all wheel drive
