Thumbs down wheels cl 500 sport

the wheels that come on the 2003 cl 500 sport are not the same as 2002 my car is built and will be in this month 2003 cl 500 sport black/stone. the wheel there using on the s500 sport wich is flush with no off set is the wheels they put on the cl's I seen them on a car, very ugly well that's my opinion.

I agree, those rims just dont do the car justice. Hopefully the twin spokes might be available when I pick my car up but I highly doubt it.

Have your dealer run the PO or VIN on Netstar. If your car shows up with the "AMG 5 Spoke Aluminum Alloy Wheels", then they are the normal ones. I have yet to see a CL55 with twin spokes, however, have seen some S55's with them.

We got the sport package on our CL600...comes with these 18" AMG's...I have the 19" AMG CL's on my 03 E series...they look sick.
