For starters what size wheel do you want to run? I have the CLS wheels (19x8.5/9.5) with et 25/28 and it's as aggressive as they come w/o rubbing.

agree with you totally 155,, I have the SL type 3 wheels that are the same as yours excellent wheels in 19" as well and works fine..

only difference is CLS offset is 25/28 and SL offset is 30/31
other than that identical..

good choice
