CLK 270
New Member to MB World - Needs help with tyres and alloys!!
Hello to everyone,
I'm new to the forum, I am running a 2005 CLK 270 cdi. I'm looking to start modding my car and I would some major help!!
What offset should I be looking for when buying some wheels? I have seen some that I like and they are 245/40/18 all the way round, would these rub on the front and would they be ok on the rear? The wheels I have as standard are 215 on the front and 225 on the rear.
Could I put 225 tyres on the front if this is a problem or will they not fit on the alloys??
Any help will be much appreciated.
The wheels will be run with standard Avantguard suspension.
Thankyou
