New rims for CL500 w216

Hi there...

First post here - hope someone can help.

Looking at buying new 20" rims for my newly purchased "old car" ... a CL500 from 2008. The ones I'm looking at are 9´5 width (both front and rear) with 46 offset. Will they fit the car ok ?

What tyre-size would you recommend for these ?

New rims

If you want the stock 20 inch AMGs that come on the 08-10 CL63 let me know. I will let them go cheap.

PS 9.5 front is too wide for the CL. You can maybe push 9 but you need to talk to someone who really knows what they are doing with Mercedes-Benz wheel setups in particular

Thanks @Vahebaldemian for your reply 👍🏻 Yeah, figured they would probably be too big but a novice in the wheels game tbh.

How does the stock ones look, out of interest ? You are based in CA and I'm in Europe so maybe a bit costly to ship.

Best regards

Depending on carrier shipping is in the $200-$250 USD range.

Thanks @Vahebaldemian Looks great on your car ... I have just done a chrome-delete on my car so wouldn't go nicely with the new look. Looking more towards a dark grey / black Brabus

Thanks for posting

Rims for W216 CL 500

Never thought it would happen in 51 years of owning cars, but utterly transfixed by these wheels on a CL 500. Had to buy it that day and still turn around to look at it as walking away!

I tried to find a set of 21 spoke wheels when I got my car. I think they are the best looking rims on a CL. I could not find any in the US. I'm 0 for 2 trying to buy used wheels, as they are all bent/cracked/a mess. Plus, I couldn't even find a full set.

I have a set of wheels for sale. I took them off my CL550 after only a few months of use.
