I appreciate all the comments and I enjoy the car very much. It is my first Benz and keeping it clean is job 1, also working at a dealership makes that even more easy. BTW, the rims are the factory 17" ones that are included in the V8 AMG package. I am planning to upgrade to the 19" CL wheels in about a month and going with H&R springs to lower it a bit.

Danny-
is it true that AMG does NOT make a 19" 5 spoke (CL sytle) wheel for our CLK's? And that 7 mm spacers are needed front/back, and that the holes are 14mm , where are bolts are 12mm? Have you had any problems so far? And how long have you had them.

Tetza,
Yep, that is Andy's E500 with full AMG package and quad exhaust. He also got the brake calipers painted red when the exhaust work was done.

I'm running 10mm H&R spacers on all 4 corners...
hey Viktorious, do you have any rubbing issues with your 15mm spacers? did you need to roll your fenders?
I'm noticing a little contact with the inside fenderwell covers, but just a little..
I wonder if they sell 12mm spacers, I think that would be perfect...

nah, j/k... nothin but love for ya
oh yeah, and yes, you are right about the 19 CL Wheels for the CLK, they don't exists... but you can custom fabricate bolts with larger bolt heads... the most important thing is, you need to make sure the bolt lengths are the correct size... you don't want them destroying your rear emergency brakes...

MarcusBenz: I'm just wondering..are u from indonesia? cos I heard that one of my friends had mentioned about one Indonesian guy who is working at the dealership (prob HOI) when I wanted to buy my ML320 but he didn't quite sure who the person is. So i ended up dealing with MBSD.
Btw, u have a nice car.

Hey Marcus, you got any discounts or hookups for us MBWorld boys? Ya'll a little far from me, but if you got hookups, it may be worth the drive over there...
Maybe I'll get to check out your car after you get new wheels too...

mmgrad,
Yes, I can get you the "hookups" on certain cars and have helped out a few enthusiasts from this forum.
kaze81,
No, I am not from indonesia....I am originally from Georgia, which I would say is the complete opposite of indonesia except for the humidity....LOL!!!

Super Member
Marcus,
Nice CLK.
Marcus, could you tell me who's a good service advisor there at HOI? I'd like to know if I can have my E55 lowered via ECU and also I want to take it in for a 1k oil change.
PM me if you can, thanks.
Arnee

Excellent Choice
On one of the other topics, someone is debating between a CLK 430 and a C32 AMG. Looking at your pics, I see the answer to that question is quite obvious! :p
