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.

front u can do up to 265........ n rear to 305 on 19s no prob.....the look of the car depende on the style of the wheel....... 20 s fill the gap better n make the car look bigger...
