Could I put this rims?

I want to put rims AMG (255-35-18 ') in clk 200 kompressor. I ask myself if I will lose much acceleration. Anymebody could say approximately how many seconds would lose?

Thanks.

You can only put those wheels on the rear, it will not fit in the front. I guess each wheel is about 2-4lbs heavier than the stock. You will lose about 0.5sec? Thats my "guesstimation"!!

Yes harrys. I have talked about to the back rims by the back traction. If only I will lose o.5 second then ones seems to me good idea to put them because they seem to me pretty much more that those that bring of series.

Would you recommend to me to put them or is much wheel for that engine?

Thank you very much.

If you put 255 tires on the rear, you will have better traction and therefore, will have better launch. Adding the width of the tires will not affect your time very much. Increasing the diameter of the wheels will.
