Aftermarket wheel options for 55 AMG?
What aftermarket wheel options are out there for the W209 CLK55? I've been told that there really aren't many wheels that will fit w/out spacers b/c the front brake calipers are so big they'll hit the spokes. I love the Zauber Gettin wheels, but they won't fit w/out a 10 mm spacer. I've also been told that the Brabus, and Lorinser wheels won't work w/out spacers either. No way am I putting spacers on there, opens up too many potential problems. I know I can get HRE 540R series custom built to to fit, but I want to know if there are any other options out there? Is the '04 CLK55 just too new for the companies to have proper offsets/fitments for it? Should I wait a while? I like the styles with a nice size lip on them BTW. Where should I be looking? Any help would be MUCH appreciated.

CLK55 and C32 share the same AMG brakes. So if a wheel can clear on a C32, chances are it will also clear on a CLK55. Here are the wheels that I can think of that will clear the CLK55 front brakes WITHOUT adding spacers:
1) Brabus Monoblock VI 18" or 19"
2) BBS LM 18" (Japanese version)
3) AMG Style IV 18" or 19"
4) SSR GT3
5) Kleemann TS-6
6) Carlsson 1/16
7) OZ Superleggera
8) Any HRE
9) Most of Work wheels
I'll edit the list if I can think of more.......
