Picked up new wheels...20' DCR's..let me know what you guys think.
I bought some used DCR's 3-piece wheels today for my CLS 500. Let me know what you guys think. They are 20x8.5 and 20x10.5 with 245/30/20 (F) and 285/30/20 (R).

You need Spacers...............the wheels r too in the body......u should hav gone with 20 by 9 n 20 by 11 to get a better stance........also tire size can go up to 255 fr n 305 Re....

07 CLS 550
So UWANIT, 20x9 and 20x11 with 305's in the rear will fit comfortably in the CLS500 and 550? another member posted the wheel wells weren't deep enough and that only amg models could fit that tire width.

CLS500
Thanks UDWANIT2
Thanks UDWANIT2, I was thinking about getting spacers. What would you recommend? I don't want any rubbing, so I would like to be more on the conservative side.

Who gave this info? 20x9 and 20x11 is the standard for all CLS's no matter which one. CLS 55 owners are the ones to be careful for brake clearance, but the rear wheel well is deep enough, with no rubbing. I experienced rubbing when I owned 21's a while ago, and that only happened when I lowered the car.

Same car has nothing to do with model...........Big Brake Kit is the only issue.......but with 20 by 9 n 20 by 11 majority of the wheels will clear BBK...
