CLK w209 270cdi/ E-coupe w207 350CGI
wheel size, pls help

Hi, i am looking at some 18" wheels 8.5J-35ET front and 9.5-35ET rear. Will they fit on my (standart) 2004 clk? And if any body has them on there car, what tyer size did you use front and back?
Thanks for any replay

Fronts will be about 1mm from rubbing the strut with that width and offset.

So do you think with spacers i could solve that? and what diameter, without the tire sticking out the fender?

I have 2007 and running fronts 8.5 35ET with michelin 235/40 18 and rears 9.5 35ET michelin 275/35-18.
Front rims are ok with 225s but 235s rub so I needed 3mm spacers. Instead I sanded the rim protector off the inside side of the front tires & no rubbing.
Rears fit fine but I installed the 3mm spacers I already had on the rears and all is well
Most people go w/ 225/40-18s front and those won't rub
