Best Wheels For W208 Clk.
Hey from the UK people!

Will be droppin it' 35mm.
Any recommendation on wheels and sizes?

Thanks for your reply guys, will 19s not rub if i am dropping the car upto 40mm. I currently have my eyes on a set of AMG II's.They are:
19 x 9.5J with Offset ET35 – 5 stud PCD 112mm
Will these fit?
I am not too good with offset etc.
Let me know please as they are coming off an S600.
Thanks

For the 19" AMG 2 from the SL600...(very rare wheels)
you need to:
Run 10mm spacers, correct tires, and run longer Lug Studs/Nuts with the correct 19mm conical nut and they should fit fine!

Forgiato Alneato. A slight hint of the older AMG monoblock style , plus a slight hint of newer trends and three piece deep dish type wheel...best of both worlds.

Oh ya, I mean I like your car now too, but comparing to the white clk with the same wheels you had, I still like you car better!!! I guess partly because I'm just not a big fan of that clk in the video. 
Does that make sense? I tend to say things that always make sense in my head but never come out right

You know, I didn't like that car at first when I saw it, but the more and more I watch it from time to time, that CLK is actually growing on me, I'm starting to like it's unique body style, it's not bad but I also think it could be better!

I like that car except for the blacked headlights...if it had some cool projectors (prolly not cheese graters) it would be super sikk

When I had a W208 CLK430, I had 18" AMG Monoblock IIs on the car with a lowered Brabus suspension, the care was nicely dropped and I was happy with the performance/handling and comfort.
19"s looks great too, sometimes it looks a little too big on a W208, but that just means you need to drop it a little more.

I have yet to find a set of wheels that truly looks "perfect" for the W208.
On a BMW the ACS wheels look like they were molded to the car from the factory. I have not seen anything that looks even remotely close to that good of a match to the W208 as of yet.

a girl usually is right? I've only looked at the video a couple of times, I guess it is one of those things that grows on people. I've also been too impatient to watch the whole thing, I'm more into fast paced, hot cars killing other cars kind of thing. I guess I'll go watch it, all the way this time!
