20 inch rim size and offset question?
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?

Rear 20 x 10

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.

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.

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

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.

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

off set wheels
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!
