"Do You" got a "mean coil over" for my Car?
will I get proper tire wear?

Its cool though, if thats your thing. I'd love to see that thing slammed on some 20" staggered wheels with a nice 3.5" rear lip!
Anyhow we carry KW coilovers and if you get an alignment tire wear will be cool, trust me I bet you have much more to worry about with those 2 totally dfferent overall diameters than you would with some negative camber!
Good luck with your project

hahah on the last post...
Since you are asking...
It's not that the wheels look bad.. they are a nice design. It's just that the back is up pretty high. The CLK looks nicer sitting low and level. Your pics seem to look as if the car has a rake to it. I don't believe the body lines match this set up. Also, the wheel wells look over filled in the rear. I have seen some cars that look good with the big wheel... Like a 300C... that car looks better with the larger wheel because it fits up in the body better... The rims are nice... the car is nice... but look a little out of place when mated to the CLK...
Here a 300C is swiped of the net...22s

Not my style, and being from the west coast I take offense giving the west coast credit for this atrocity.
but, you must be digging this...
22 inch spinners on a 645...

2004 Silver CLK500
I am still trying to find any thing good to say about the 22" wheels. But seriously, this car is not looking good at all. It is in a grotesque shape with higher rear, huge wheels, on a lowered suspension. You posted these picture to see our comments, and I can honestly tell you that 22" are not meant for a two door coupe CLK. CLK is a refined car, which is not meant to have an in your face attitude. These wheels just don't gowell with the character of this car.
