G500 parts?

hey guys, i traded the CLK on G5oo on monday.

Now im looking for some stuff for it and cant find anything. Just wondering if you all know of any webpages. I posted on the G500 forums but got no reply at all...

Also anyone know if the wheels off the clk 19X8.5 and 19X9.5 will work on the G?

I believe they wouldnt, the offsets would be completely different. The G is heavy, you might need some heavy rims with that, the CLK wheels would be wayy to light for that, idk i could be wrong, can anyone elaborate on this, you could try the g-class forum here or on www.benzworld.org

There are no offset issues with the G-class as long as you have clearance. I am running ET0 wheels on mine, down from the ET62 or whatever wheels that come with it.

The problem is that the G-class uses different wheel bolt pattern than the CLK, 5x130 vs. 5x112. The hub size is also completely different. Of course, the difference in lug bolt sizes becomes moot.

Lastly, you shouldn't consider using different size front/rear wheels on the G500, it is all wheel drive and the set up it has is intended for matched wheels/tires all around.
