ML with CL AMG wheels ?
Hello

I am thinking of putting the CL / S 20'' amg wheels on the ML instead of the ML's 20 AMG wheels. Anyone know if they will fit? or have some photos with them installed? any thoughts?

Heres a url showing them on ebay:

I have done some experimenting with photoshop to see how they look in comparison with the ML's AMG's :



Thanks

They look good. But they do not look different enough to warrant the change.

yes i agree they do not look different enough for changing from the ml's, but i do not have either AMG's yet on my ML, so i am basically trying to choose between the two in which one to install.
Some people have identified that their offset is siginificantly less than that of the ML's AMG, and that i will need spacers. is there any problems/sideeffects in installing these with spacers?

If they were suitable, they'd be in Mercedes' catalog of wheels for the ML.

They're not and they're not.
