Debating going this route and want to know if it has been done before and whether there would be any fitment challenges.

don't think the stock brakes will clear the center barrel if they're 18" step-lip with 17" centers... but 18" reverse-lip or mono-block should be fine, I think Jim runs smaller size wheels on his drag CLK, maybe?

CLK BS
I am. Contact Dan @ CCW for more details. I will post some pics when I have the opportunity. It opens up a wider selection of tires.

I have a set of 18" from CCW and there are great. The inside rim is really close to the stock calipers on the front but it still clears it. I think this may depend on what rim style you go with also.

I posted my setup here:

Thanks!
