AMG 5 spoke design. Not too sure about what finish the 2003 CLs have though.

Thank you

I didn't want to go into the store and say "Um, I need the wheels with five things that are kind of thick that go on the CL500" lol

I'm suprised this thread wasn't hijacked by your fans

I am a big fan of the Brabus Multi-piece Monoblock V for the SLK. I never thought it could be pulled off until I saw it in this thread.

LoL...I guess they don't lurk in here

Yeah those look really good on the SLK! I went through many choices before deciding on the CL rims. Nothing is set in stone but I think those badboys, 18" chrome, would look pretty badass with tinted windows and a 1" drop

I wish I could see them on the car before such a large purchase, but I did the same thing with my last car....I bought the biggest and the baddest the they were awesome!!! They were 19" but I don't want to go that big with the SLK. I have seen some SLK's pull it off and look GREAT, but I don't want to compromise the ride TOO much. Though riding on 18"s won't exactly feel like a Cadillac, lol

The CL 215 rim wont fit a SLK. What you want to look for is the AMG 5 Spoke 203 rim. Those will have the correct offset and bolt pattern for the SLK and look like the CL215 5 spoke rim.

Thank you! As long as they look the same then I'm all for it, lol I hope they would have told me that at the shop where I buy my wheels, but better to know before hand so I don't sound like a retard when I go In that first picture I posted they are said to fit the SLK, so I assume those aren't the 215 then?

EDIT - I guess I should have posted this is the wheel forum....OOPS!!
