2005 Mercedes CL65
Autosports European Wheels

When I found and fixed the crack in one of my OEM wheels, I began thinking about replacing the wheels altogether while reconditioning/refurbishing the originals and preserving them.

I didn't want to drop a ton of cash on wheels when I have other things I need and want to do, so I looked for a nice, inexpensive alternative.

I came across this company and these wheels... I was just wondering if anyone here has ever worked with them or purchased their wheels.

They look good there is a lot more other alternatives out there. There is a guy on here selling some nice Vertini wheels with tires for like $2300 (BRAND NEW) those wheels are super nice. Also you can look into a nice concave wheel, its all about what you like. I've been researching wheels for a while since I just got a new set for my W221 S Class, I also will be doing my CL but for now going with the 20s that I have.

Good Luck

I bought a set of Euromag EM2's and love the look, (exactly like the Roderick wheels in your link) however the 48mm offset rears DO NOT clear the rear brakes. I think the 35 offset rears would but IMO 35's will stick out too far. I have 38 offset rears now and they rub on the fender lip occasionally so 35's would be worse.

Careful OP. The CL65 has a special size and offset for the rears. You screw that up and you're either mexican fitment (poking past the fender) or completely sunken into the fender.
