CLS55 wheel offset?
So the stock CLS55 wheels are 25/28 offset, 8.5" front, 9.5" rear
However I want to buy some replica OEM wheels, same width and the seller claims that the 35 offset won't be a problem all around, can anyone confirm?

Stock CLS55 offset is 25 in the front and 28 in the rear. The 35 offset will fit, however if you want the "flush" look then you will need a 10 mm spacer in the front and 5 mm spacer in the rear.
I wouldn't recommend putting replica wheels on a CLS55 though.

Do this, go oem, your car will make you regret you got it cheap replicas, they all pretty much suck

Sincerek44 Welcome to the board! Look under your front fender. Tire diameter can't grow much due to the upper ball joint, and I thought the bolt pattern was 112??? Maybe not.
so I have 2006 CLS55 AMG and we bought after market chrome rims made by Mandrus-Mannheim chrome. the front is +32 offset and the rear is +53 offset and we have tried spacers on it and the car still has a shake to it, but not with the factory rims. we used 25mm spacer on the rear and a 5mm on the front as well as tried a 10mm on the frontand a 15mm on the rear. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

I will bet anything that your wheels weren't properly balanced. A lot of wheel tire package combos just slap the tires on with out a proper balance. Also people who don't know what they're doing are dangerous. Make sure they have quality equipment and do high performance autos.
Take your car to a reputable performance shop that sells expensive wheels. Ask them to balance your wheels. It should cost no more than $80-$100 for the whole car. It will be the best money spent and your car should ride like stock wheels do!
Also don't say anything about vibrations, you'll most likely get turned away as high caliber shops don't want to inherit someone else's sloppy work. It ain't worth it for $100. Just go in and say you'd like a tire balance. That's it.
Going to send them back to wheel company. We had them balanced and still the same thing. Not going to deal with it anymore, just going to buy OEM. thanks.'
