SL65 Wheels on CLS?
I have my SL65 wheels on my CLS and thinking about putting them on. I know the SL offsets are a bit higher than CLS ones. Question is anyone tried them on a CLS?

SL65: 30F 31R
OEM: 25R 28R

They will work but they will sit inward... spacer time

Yeah how much though? I am thinking 5mm? Since those OEM ones are I think 28 and SL are 31. The concave OEM ones sit a bit in and would be bad *** to space em out couple more MM

They will look funny because the stock CLS OEM wheels are tucked...spacers or a different rim sir...

Well if the CLS offsets are conservative you should check with an aftermarket wheel company and see what they are doing on 2006+ (not 2012's) CLS's with aggressive fitments...

I am thinking to stay at stock offsets instead? get a 3mm spacer for the rear which would make it 28 as the stock ones are 28 also.
