I want to put on:
Front 20 x 8.5
Rear 20 x 10
Offset - Front +20 / Rear +25
Tire Front 245/35/20
Tire Rear 275/30/20
Would this setup work ok?
Anyone know the length of lug bolt I should be using?

Is that for your E500 ? it is an aggressive setup with these offsets but I think that might still fit for the w211 , but as far as the lug bolts it will always depend on the type and model of aftermarket wheels , your best bet for bolts is to dry fit the the wheels first I like to get full 8 turns of the lugs to lock up no less

No I am inquiring for a cls500. I know the offsets should be fine my only concern is the tire setup since I will be using 245/35/20 up front and 275/30/20 in rear. I'm set on this setup of tires because the tires that are practically new coming off my old setup that was on my eclass.

Here is a new offset tool/claculator MBWorld is testing out:

Try this and let us know how it works for you.

Hello,

If you go for 20", then the setup is wrong :

you should go for :

245/25/20 front
&
275/25/20 Rear,

Here is my setup : Mandrus Stuttgart Sliver
9 & 11 x 20
255/30 front
305/25 rear

I ran 20x8.5 fronts with 245/35/20 Falken FK452 tires and 20x10 rears with 285/30/20 tires with a 20 ET front and rear. Sat flush front and back. So your setup will be fine with a 25 ET in the rear and the narrower tire. BTW, mine was stock height, no ELM.

Thankyou for reply, I read it was possible but was not sure.

The tires you mention are OK , the 245 is fine for the 8.5 and 275 is fine for 120 ...As long as you know they will be roughly 3/4" larger diameter than stock OEM ...My renntech CLS came with 255/35- 285-30 they did it on purpose to have more meat on the side walls but these were full 1" larger diameter , not to my liking visually but they worked fine no rubbing

wont look nie it wil be in the body......im running 20 by 9.5 n 20 by 11.5 on aggresive offset...an i think i can still thorw a 5mm spacer ...but it will rub the liner...you should go min 20 by 9 n 20 by 11.....with 255/30 fr n 305/25 rears to set it off right....or add 10 mm spaer front n 15 mm spacer rear to your setup....

Why are you going with those sizes & offsets? Is your car lowered?

ydlee

[quote=CLSED550;5649310]I decided not to go with this set up its an old posting. I ended up getting 245/35/20 fronts and 295/30/20 rears lowered on a carlsson elm. I went with 35/30 series for more cushion.

Did you end up getting the 255/35/20 front? Did you see above on MAXWERKS he had 255/35/20 as well.

CLSED550

Max, what's your wheel offset for front and how wide? I have a 24 OFFSET and I want to try and run a 255-35-20 & wheels are 9"wide. 2008 cls550. Renntech V3.

Hello all
I just purchased my first cls 500 and I would like some advice on wheels. I'm looking to with a 20 inch wheel but I want that huge lip, what off set and tire size should I go. Keep in mind this is a bone stock car and my wife drive it mostly so I don't want any issue with rubbing any where when we turn or in the rear. Also what size lug bolt will I need? Thanks all!
