2012 4-Matic with S63 AMG style reps fitted.
At least I think these are styled after an optional wheel on the S-Class AMG cars.
We finally got these fitted today. Really happy with how these turned out. Do not buy these wheels and expect them to fit. The front's will require you to run a really small 2-3mm spacer to clear the caliper. Otherwise I think these really suit the car well. I'll get better pics when it's not 100 outside.

He's only had it 2 weeks now so he hasn't said much about the 4-Matic over his old RWD E550.
Every time I drive it I just focus on hearing the turbos spool up, I gotta stop doing that haha so I'm no use yet. I'll ask him after he's driven a few more miles in it.

I got them from USARIM.com
Tire and wheel are stock size 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 Offsets are a little more aggressive 30 and 35.
Like I said before the fronts will not fit without a spacer.

Det550...was following your other post and glad to see you go the wheels on. Look great. Very nicely done.
Following up on the question Vdubpower had on your wheel setup, I wanted to get a bit more information from you. I also have a 2012 CLS 4Matic but do already have the +1 optional 19in AMG style wheels on the car. I going to be installing spacers as well to provide a more aggressive offset like you did. Want to know:
1. What brand of spacers did you use (H&R Trak+, or other)
2. What size did you order for the front and rear to get to your 30mm & 35mm offset end state (was it a 3mm in the front and 15mm for the back?)
3. Post install, have you had any issues with vibration or other?
Looks like your running stock 19" in sizes on both wheel width and tire size on your rep wheels as my OEM 19"s, so setup with spacers could be replicated on my vehicle.
Appreciate your insight. My vehicle pick below...

I'm 99.9% positive the offsets for your factory 19 inch wheel set up is as follows.
Fronts
19 x 8.5 eta 34.5
Rears
19 x 9.5 eta 48
So basically if you wanted to achieve the same look with spacers on your factory 19"s you would need a 4.5 spacer in the front, and a 13 mm spacer in the rear.
There is room to move them out a bit more in order to get spacers in the normal size offered. I think if you went with a 5mm front and anywhere from 13-15mm in the rear you would be fine.
I don't have much expierence running spacers I usually don't care for them but I know from previous exp on other cars that H&R makes a good product.
Since this car is so new I would recommend giving a good H&R track+ distributor a call to get the best information. I just wanted to help you out with what I know to be the factory offsets for the wheels you are running.
