Wheel Upgrade Question for CLS
I have a FANTASTIC pending deal for a set of Lorinser RS8 in 19. The only issue is that they came off an S Class. The seller is adamant that they will fit my CLS properly but I have my reservations.
He has limited information about the offset but my question is can this be done properly? Or do I just need to keep shopping around?
Thanks in advance

No problems it will fit u probably need spacers like 5mm in the front n 10 mm in the rear to make it look proper with the body of a CLS....They will fit.....
Personally i would go for 20 s they fit the car well n u can get the right offset....

CLS 500
Correction:
The wheels are LM-6 (the 2-piece setup). Also I'd like to know what's the biggest 19" tires I could run on the 500.
I have seen the AMG 19" setup with the following:
Size Front:19x8.5 wheels 255/35/YR19 tires
Size Rear: 19x9.5 wheels 285/30/YR19 tires
I like the 20" set up that most here conform to as well, but to keep it as close to factory for resale I don't want to look too custom (if that makes any sense).
Much appreciation for any comments.
Thanks.
