Lowenhart LD2 on W140 Coupe

Just bought a set of Lowenhart LD2s, and was thinking about getting them rechromed on the barrel. The center caps need to be rechromed too. Looked around, but havent seen much? Anybody have personal experience with dealing with rechroming shops?

Also, whats the right size tire to make them sit right on a 1998 CL600. The rims are 20x9 and 20x10. I was thinking 255/35/20 (f), and 285/35/20 (r), but I am not entirely too sure.

As far as lugs, the oem ones dont sit right on the rims, what size lugs do I need?

As always, any help is appreciated! Thanks!

Thanks HellahFresh... Do you think I would have an issue with 255 fronts and 285 rears?
