Wheels for W208 CLK 320 2001

Can anyone tell me if I can upgrade my wheels with a non staggered option of 19 8.5? I have been told that I could but the car will not steer properly.

Any comments?

Yes you can just lower offset then the front.if it is true that the wheels will cause to not steer right it will also look funny cuz the rear wheels will sit farther inside the wheel well.that's why I said to get a lower offset to have the rear wheel sit as flush with the front as possibe.goodluck

I will go with staggered. I confirmed that it will affect the grip and steering.
