I'm assuming you are reffering to mine... Just FYI, it came that way from the factory as a Dealer Add-on that the original owner purchased including the
Lorinser 19" wheels, dual exhaust, AMG body kit and yes, the trunk badge too... It doesn't have an AMG engine obviously... Would you feel better if I removed any and all reference to AMG from the car so that you feel better..? If you have an issue with it, maybe you should take it up with Mercedes Benz or the Dealer that added the AMG pieces... As far as the headlight surrounds, I guess you are entittled to your opinion... I feel the same way about your "brothers old car" with respect to stuffing the trunk so full of audio equipment that it can't be used for anything...

Will some 8.5J all round with off set 35 fit my car? 20" rims. and will be lowered by 40mm with the HR springs...??

These tires were not available until summer of 2004 - all the previous 20" setups used the larger 245/35/ and 275/30/20 (the smallest OD tires previously available in 20") which fits on an E-Class W211 but not on a CLK.

BTW Even with the 245/30 and 285/25 and a custom offset, if the CLK is lowered it will rub badly, especially with ET 29 on the front axle. This is due only to the extra 10-20mm width of the tire, not the OD.
Hello

Hope you can help me out big time!

Basically, I have a set of 20" rims, 8.5J all round, and 35 off set.

The car will be lowered aswell with the HR springs by 40MM

The tyres Il be getting will be 245/30/ front, and 265/25/ rear

Will this all be ok?

This is the car I am tempted to pick up. Specs from the seller....

List of modifications:

- Custom supercharger kit built by Keuylian Motorcars

- HRE 547R Wheels 19x8.5 + 19x10 w/ 235/35/19 + 265/30/19 pirelli tires

- H&R lowering kit

- Brembo Gran Turismo big brake kit

- Eisenmann Race exhaust 2x83mm tips

- K&N intake filter panel

- Custom ECU tuning

- Custom ducktail and roof spoiler

- Smoked tailights

Keuylian Motorcars is an auto shop located that is owned by the owner of Lamborghini beverly hills. They have been building supercharger kits for Mercedes cars like the CL and SL as well.. The supercharger itself is identical to the Kleeman supercharger for Merc's V8 engine. see it here http://www.renntechmercedes.com/Show_Eng_Kom.html Listed on the website the price for the alomst identical supercharger kit is $15,900.

Tuning of the ECU is done by Jesse. The car made 367 whp and 389 ft lbs of torque on the wheels. and that translates to about 435 horsepower on the engine.

There is no mechanical problem with this car at all. The car runs strong and smooth. More than $20K worth of modifications (not including labor) has been done to this car. Every care has been taken while building this car. It is a perfectly balanced car in terms of styling and performance.

#1 goclkgo,
I've seen most of your posts and they're very negitive. So my guess is you're a fat lonely uneducated slob who has no friends and can't get Laid. Also,
I'm sure you wish you had a CLK 500 as well you dickweed .

Thanks

Thanks for the kind words. I agree, that guy adds on value to this forum.
I just wanted to say that I'm enjoying my CLK compared to the Porsche's I've owned and I have no regrets with it. I look forward to the insights of the owners on this forum.
Thanks again.
