Help with a 98 CLK320
Well, im about to trade my car in for a CLK320, but I want a cabrio. I was wondering if the CLK320 came in a cabrio in 1998, or did it start in 99?
Thanks alot....Also, is there any diff besides the wheels from the 98 clk320, and the 01 clk320

I agree that 20's would look awesome, but read other posts saying why they wont work. There are several modificatons alone to be done for them to fit i believe, so why not get 18's or 19's and save yourself some trouble, also salvage the ride quality. I have a 55 with 19's and it looks sweet, so take your 320 put some 19's on it and lower it, that is just my opinion. Just something else to consider.

also the inside computer is different
also you cant put 20" rims on the clk 19" only
unless u start shaving the fenders etc
go with 19 drop em and ride will come out tight
also if got the $ get lorinser DTM spoilers and then u definatelly be pimping
ps dont forget the tv's in the car
good luck

Thanks for all your help..all of it helped me out. I never knew I couldent put 20's on the car, so 19's will have to due.
sungulent: LOL, TVs are a mod i wanna do for the back seats. A friend of mine has the new jag with that in, and it looks very nice. All I wanna do is, tv, system, and wheels.
Once again, thanks all for your help.

98 CLK 320/99 E430
Ok so i know what im about to say imight be biased but i had to put my 2 cents. Now i know that stock rims on CLK 320's arent the nicest, but personally i think 2k+ stock rims are uglier than than pre 2k....Pre 2k almost look chrome when there clean and spinning. just my two cents, but my advice would be to def get the 2000.

."I dont really like the 20's on the CLK, cause of whatever....But that was just my option, but whatever you do, i wish you best of luck"
See how that came out? Pretty nice uh? The way you 2 guys came onto me was just plain out immature.
I dident EVEN know that you couldent put 20's on without doing alot of mods to the car. I learned that from ERICCLK55. Did you see how his post was? Maybe you should learn how to express what you think like his.
o well, enough of what I wanted to say, but next time, maybe not just in mine...Think about what your saying to the guy. They are just in need for help, and not looking for a immature post.....
Pretty said this is all coming from a 19 year old kid
later....and yes, im putting 19's on, cause i dident want to do all the mods to the car.

It amazes me that...
you guys constantly forget the substantial differences between the 99's and 2000 up cars. The differences are not trivial...
In addition to the much improved body work in 2000, you also get the information center in the instrument cluster with steering wheel controls(and the capability for COMAND), SOS warning system, 16" wheels on the 320 instead of the awful 15's on the 99, the newer style keys/remotes, turn signals in the mirrors instaed of cheesy side markers, but more importantly, the 2000 up models also have prepaid service during the warranty period. These substantial differences, in all models, are the reasons why 99's are getting hit so hard in the resale market. The typical payment shopper will pay the premium for these features, especially once he realizes the 99's don't have them. Hope this helps, allen.
