Yes 20" AMG reps, I actually like the look of the reps better in this rim style and the offsets are way better no need for spacers as you would have with the real AMG wheels.

Thanks

CL500, CL55 and CL600 all have the same rear end, but CL65's are not the same so the offsets that work on my CL600 will not work on your CL65.

sorry man.

I'm aware of that issue. I need to know your offset on your rears that way I can figure out where they would sit on my car (don't worry it gets complicated). Are they a +44?

There are the wheel sizes / off sets that I know work on my car even when lowered....

8.5" et35 / 9.5" et35 (current set up)

9" et40 / 10" et45 (past set)

9" et40 / 10.5" et44 (some day set)

Also these are good site to use

Excellent thanks. I am going with 10.5's on the rear of my CL with 305's. I have figured out the offset 99%. I just wanted to see what other guys are doing.

Funny you say that I just had SPEEDRIVEN do my ECU / TCU tune ...........


SPEEDRIVEN - What do you want the speed limiter set to ?

Me - O ... I don't know what do you usually do ?

SPEEDRIVEN - We usually set it to 210 mph.

Me - Ummm, sure that will be ok ... .... Could this car even get near that ?

SPEEDRIVEN - Yes it will be able to now given enuf road.
