20s too big for CLK63?
I don't want to be a baller, I just want to fill out those wheel wells.
I was thinking of some black either 19/20" iforged or maybe hre (although I'm open to suggestions
) wheels. Opinions?

dont go with 20's they are too big. i had them on my clkk55 and took them off a week later. had lowenhart lsr's. The tires have to be so thin to fi. 255/30/20 in the back and 235/30/20 in the front. go with 19's you will be much happier.

Go with 19's and lower the car. That will fill up the wheel well very nicely. iFORGED's are great. I've had mine for about 10 months now, and love them. Try to get as wide a tire as will fit, as I know you must have problems with traction. Plus, a wider tire always makes the car look more aggressive.

You can go with 20's. My friend has 20's on his and I on my w208. The tire set up that he and I have is 225/35/20 and 255/30/20. As stated above by someone else...yes the 235/30/20 sucks as$ because I've run that tire also but the 225/35 feels smooth and you have plenty of clearance. That's what my friend is running and he has no issues or discomfort and his car is lowered on H&R's. You'll like the look better and the ride is exactly the same as running a 235/35/19 tire. The choice is yours tho.
