E550 coupe
Long time reader, first time poster! (rim question)

Hello All,

Just wanted to say thanks for all the great advice I've seen here. I drive a white 2011 E550 coupe, no major mods either then some tints, grill and large spoiler from Efan.

I'm the kind of person that researches like crazy and living in Toronto has made my rim choices a little tough. After much internal debate I've finally found a rim that I love....Vossen CV5 in polished silver, although they only come in 20x9 and 20x10.5 (for now, I've contacted them directly and have heard that they'll be coming out with 19" options). The CV3's are my backup choice as they come in 20x10

Vossen referred me to a few rim shops and they've all claimed that these rims will in fact fit nicely on my car. I'm still a little weary especially since I wanted to lower my car with H&R sports.

Has anyone heard of 20x10.5 on our cars? last thing I want is rubbing

Thanks!

I like CV3 more.They have the correct width.Be careful with the offsets.10,5 at the rear is out of the question.

First off welcome to MB World. Thank you for the interest, i think they will look amazing on the coupe. As of right now CV2/CV3 are the only two wheels that are offered in 20x8.5/20x10.0 that is recommended for your vehicle. CV4/5/7 will come in 19s & 22s in the near future. Offsets needed in CV3 are +32/55 in 20x8.5/20x10.0 245/30/20 & 285/25/20.

Front needs the lower offset to clear caliper. rear will be perfect with the 10.0 +55! 10.5 will be too aggressive.

I also like the CV5' as well,19s will do fine with me. CV3's would be my alternate choice.

I was hesitant when both places I called said they'd fit.

Next spring we hope to have those sizes! We also will have the lightweight forged Vossen Precision Series, completely in-house effort with custom sizes!
