Trollfinn's 06 CLS500 Thread
Hey guys new to this forum. Just picked up a CLS and it replaced Volvos that I have used for daily driving duties for the last 20 years. Looking forward to soaking up knowledge on this new Merc. It is a great car to accompany the 911. First day of ownership I wetsanded and machine polished the headlights out. Cheers.

Thanks guys. Bought some 19" AMG wheels from the next gen CLS with Sottozero winters. Measuring offset and I think I'll end up with 25mm in the rear and 5 or 10 in the front.
