I need new tires for the rear of my 2000 w208 and said to myself when I needed tires will look at new rims. If I go with something I do want 18's. When I go to 18's should they be staggered like the stock 17's with the rears being bigger?

Also would love to see some pictures and have members tell me where and how much they bought there from.

I am looking at something like the following:

I like the 808 and 802, and 817 style. Also has anyone bought from the top site?

May I suggest these I have them on my CLK! there gorgeous.There W209 clk55 18'' AMG staggered wheels. I have 225's for my front tires and 275's for the rears, and they look nice and fat

that's what I have, d. i love those. didn't have to spend much, authentically
german, and they could be found from those who were upgrading to pricer/
fancier rims. i liked those split spokes because they had gentle curves, vs,
say, those variants used by the older C-class. (mine were from 211 E55)

I love the 804s. I like these because they are a replica of an Italian wheel that sold for twice the price but went out of production. There was a wheel that looked just like it from eurowheels from LA, I think it was called, but I read some really bad reviews on them. If you decide to go with this company please post the quality of the wheels and if you had any trouble getting them balanced, which seems to be a common complaint with replicas at cheaper prices. TIA!!!!

I'm with dlbehrns on this one. The 804's look super nice!

Where did you get the rims and what did you pay for them?

Not interested in the rims but will take that 11.4 1/4 mile time for my clk. Just kidding. Good luck selling the rims.

LOL. With a Kleemann supercharger and a little bit of tuning your CLK would run circles around my SL. If you haven't seen it already, check out Ahmad's (forum name Blackbenz) CLK55.

I have seen his CLK is is awesome. Find me a Kleemann and a tune for the cost of a set of rims and I am in!!!!

I would check out Complete Custom Wheels, CCW.

doberzus, would those 18" staggered wheels fit okay on a CLK 320 Cabrio (W208) without having to make any mods? I still have the OEM 16" wheels on mine and would like to go 17" staggered, but for the life of me, I cannot find the wheels I like staggered on 17". This is what I'm after: http://www.usarim.com/mercedes-wheel...facturers_id=3
Anyone has any ideas where I can find these staggered (17x7.5 and 17x8.5)?

rrich49132

I cant find anything that is staggered.

If it is the W208 I see no problem with that, considering the 55 AMG is even lower than the 320 (sport suspension) with that said my 18's do not rub at all. There 18'' wheels with 275's out back for tires, and of course 225's in the front and I have had no rubbing whatsoever. Since our 55 AMG's have severe traction issues I recommend 275's for the rear tires, but you have a 320 so no worries there. Just get the fat rubber anyways for the looks and nice choice of wheels those look tight!
