What wheel will fit?

I want to replace the wheels on my 2014 CLS550 4-matic with a more attractive amg style but retain the 18" size in hopes of saving a better ride. I have been advised that the CLS has a unique to itself offset. If this is true what wheels/mfg. can I source? Thanks.

Which wheels do you have on now ? The basic Ronal 5 spokes that came OEM if you did not order any wheel package ? Or did you get the 18 inch wheel package and now have AMG 5-spoke 18s ?

While I am not sure about "Ronal" they are 5 spoke OEM wheels and after reviewing all the added options I do not see any wheel package. This a 2014 my dealer had to obtain later in the year from another dealer to get all the options color etc. I wanted except wheels. Thanks for your reply.

I have the 5 spoke AMG 18 inch wheels as shown above. They came with Wheel Package 1 together with a flat bottom steering wheel and the option to set the trans to manual/sport mode using the button to the right of the driver's knee. If you do not have Wheel Package 1, you probably have the 5 spoke Ronals which are OEM as well but I understand why you want to change out. I'm good with my AMG 18s and will not switch to 19s cos of concern about potholes, tire wear etc .... They are the right balance for me of some looks, some comfort and survivability over potholes.

Yours looks better than what I have. I need to ascertain what offset etc. will fit my current CLS. Maybe I need to contact my dealer service/parts dept. Thanks.

For our 2014s ( and I think 2012 onwards are like that )
Front offset 34.5 18x8.5
Rear offset 48 18x9.5


AMG 18s that you see above retail at about $900 or so per wheel at the dealer.


You might want to see if another 2012+ CLS owner upgraded their AMG 18s to 19s or 20s and they might have a spare set to sell you. That is how I got my spare set for winter use.
