Anybody have CLS offset wheels on a GLK class?

Good day friends!

I choose wheels for the summer,
now I go to the w212 for the winter with the parameters r17 8j et48 with tires 225 / 65 r17.

For the summer I can put the original - r19 7.5j et47 with tires 235 / 50 r19.

Now mode

GLK has a short-haul suspension and I wanted to find forged wheels on my r19 tires,
but I saw CLS wheels and their installation is haunted by me ;(

Used search, from similar themes, this was useful
First
Second

Tell me please, who put the wheels from cls to glk?
or disks with such parameters:
Front 8,5Jx19H2ET34,5
Rear 9,5Jx19H2ET48 ?

I'm not sure of your specific specs. I've had a CLS550 with those wheels pictured. I have a GLK350. I've put the GLK 20 inch wheels on the GLC that I had, but that required spacers on the front wheels to clear the brake calipers. Even if the offset of the wheels is correct for your application, you'll need to actually try the wheels on the vehicle to make sure that the rims clear the calipers and that the tires do not rub on the bottom mount of the shock tower. And if you don't have Mercedes rims (which use spherical lug bolts), make sure that the lug bolts for the wheels are either conical or spherical to match the wheels. And if you are going to need spacers, you'll need longer lug bolts. Adapting different wheels to a vehicle is not straight forward. Best of success in making this work.

Thank you very much for the advice!

according to my calculations, the difference in wheel clearance will be more than 0.8 inches.

Bolts are not the worst, everything else should come up. Maybe you had cls w219 - there is a very small departure, about et20.

In the meantime, I traveled with my original disc ))
to the wheel sellers and chose, I will give the photo now. the first cls wheels, the second shmidt r19 8.5j et35.


Cls w218
Front 8,5Jx19H2ET34,5 12.6кг
Rear 9,5Jx19H2ET48 12,9кг

Glk original r20
Front 8.5Jx20 ET45
Rear 9.5Jх20 ET57


Glk 235/50 on 7.5j rims vs Cls rims 8.5j

Cls r19 8.5/9.5j


Shmidt r19
