Question Help with CL500 Staggered Wheels setup

Am I going to have issues with the rear 275/35-19 with an offset of 47mm? Is it going to rub the fender? Will I need to get the fender roll? You know of any place in Seattle/Tacoma that would roll the fender? Thx for any feedbacks.

I'm planning going with this setup:

Front Fitment
19x8.5





Offset: 46mm Backspacing: 6.61" Bolt Pattern: 5-112
Rec. Tire Size: 245/40-19
Weight: 31.5lbs.
Important Notes

Optional Rear Fitment
19x9.5





Offset: 47mm Backspacing: 7.12" Bolt Pattern: 5-112
Rec. Tire Size: 275/35-19
Weight: 32.0lbs.

I don't think so, with 20's the max would be 255/35/20 and 285/30/20 and brabus recomends rolling fenders with this setup. If you want 21's you will need a thiner tire like 255/30/21 and 285/25/21. The car will handle very rough, I would not go bigger than 20". You can always call up Brabus, they are always willing to help with there products.

Just so the record is not wrong for people searching this thread in the future, I believe the max is 305/30 on the 20s as I have not seen anything wider, and that is what I am running. Mine is the 55 so the fenders are already rolled. I completely agree with slonar21 though, on not going larger than 20s. Maybe on the new body style but not the 215.

Just put your original size on a left side and optional on a right.

It will tell you result at the bottom.
