Stock wheel setup - 20mm spacers?
Is anyone running north of 12mm? There is youtube clip showing a BS with 20mm's (before/after views). Do you see any downside for use of 20mm for street use only on BS with stock suspension?

Also what was the specs on the Wheel Studs you used? I don't think stock wheel Studs work.
also those wheels look great
I just got off the phone with a tech at H&R
He said that H&R did not make spacers for
the CLK63 Black Series because only
350 CLK63 Black Series were produced
But - Looking at the application chart
I see that they have spacers for a 2009 CLK55 AMG
So I asked
The tech did not know what year MB stopped making
the CLK55
Thank-You

Mark - could you post part numbers for both spacers and bolts if you have free time? Also, did you end up needing to machine polish spacers to match the metal of the stock wheels? Thx

I went 10mm front and 12mm rear with extended bolts (H&R part #'s below). As always with this car,, pics don't do it justice.
IMO, tire gap looks perfect in rear and near perfect in front. You may be able to run 12s all around, but no complaints with current set-up.

Sorry for any confusion, I wrote down part numbers and sourced thread sizing and ancillary data in my post directly from H&R site.
