CLS wheels!?

Any one knows if a CLS rear wheel 18x9,5ET28 will fit in the W209 at the rear?

The CLK wheels have 18x8,5ET30 and I was playing with a wheel size calculator and the difference is small between the two size wheels, but I don't know if it will be rubbing the wheel arch or not!

PS: I have CLK63 OEM wheels, but the rear ones look a bit thin and I want to have something wider at the rear, and I found the CLS ones to be a good match. I'm thinking to change only the rear ones, since I like alot the AMG wheel design.

My guess would be that it won't work unless you add a spacer (10 - 15 mm). In addition you will need different bolts.

Just to clarify, ET28 vs ET30, 28 is more closer to the fender rigth?
Smaller the ET more outside will be the wheel correct?

If 28 is more out than 30 why should I need a 10mm spacer?

Thanks

So with 18x9,5 ET28 with 255/35 would work?
