That is highly understandable. Also weight savings baby

My 20" wheels are 17kg lighter than the 19" original AMG wheels > https://mbworld.org/forums/c219/8443...ml#post8761410

 

Finally got around to weighing the new BBS wheels while I was cleaning and ceramic coating them before mounting the tires. FYI, when ceramic coating new wheels make sure to tape off about 1" on the barrel right behind the spokes and 1" on the outer part of the barrel. This is so the wheel weights have a chance of adhering to the barrel as the ceramic coating can prevent the weights from sticking properly and then they'll come off.

Front wheel 19x9 10.69 kg 23.57 lbs
Front wheel spacer 573.5 g 1.26 lbs
Front spacer bolts (5) 269 g 0.59 lbs
Front wheel bolts (5) 377 g 0.83 lbs
Front total: 11.9095 kg 26.26 lbs

Rear wheel 19x10.5 11.30 kg 24.91 lbs
Rear wheel spacer 1048.5 g 2.31 lbs
Rear spacer bolts (5) 269 g 0.59 lbs

Rear total: 12.9945 kg 28.65 lbs

 

A bit of warning to folks with cars north of 100k. I just turned over 130k and the crank pulley started wobbling pretty bad, immediately took it to the shop and had it replaced. I was lucky to have caught it in time as it damn near fell off. Another CLS55 was there for the exact same thing but they were not as lucky and the pulley did come off and damaged the front of the block.

While it was up there I had the original coils all replaced along with an oil change and brake fluid flush.

Not much else new other than it has been an absolute time saver on roadtrips especially when the speed limit is already 80 mph

 

Good piece of advice!

I also had it replaced a while ago. Please note that a small amount of wobble is normal with (very) low rpms. I got paranoid and also got it replaced for peace of mind, and the new one showed the same amount of wobble with low rpm
