Do 2003 rims fit 2001 CL55?

I have a 2001 CL55 with stock 18" AMG monoblock rims and I would like to know if the stock 18" AMG twin spoke rims from a 2003 CL55 would fit on my car.

Anyone ever tried this?

Thanks

They should be the same offsets. Look in the owners manual. It tells you the size and offset of your wheels. Post the results and I will let you know.

It should be the same. I'm assuming the 2001 has rolled fenders already, which will help with rubbing.

Stick with those as they are wider.

Yah, the monoblocks are really nice but I just wanted to make the car look like the newer model.

Thanks for the help guys!
