CLK320
Question Rims advice please

Hello all,

I'm a new owner of a 2001 clk320. I cant seem to make a decision for the life of me and need your expertise...

1) What size rims would look nice 17's or 18's? Right now I am interested in the carlssons, kleeman, or AMG style III. Will it look weird if I do not lower the car?

2) Does wheel size change the quality of ride? Does suspension?

3) If anyone has a clk320 with 18's on (and not lowered), can you please post a pic.

Thanks all in advance.

style of the rim is a personal thing... go with what you like best.

size? it depends.... if you want to go all out... get 19s... there is not wrong with 18s either... if the roads you travel are good, go 19s... they you live in like NY, then go with 18s.

lower? yes, it will look quite weird if you don't lower it after you change your rims... not necessarily fugly, but it will look a lot better lowered
