THEY WILL. first you need to get shorter lugs like the ones that come with the CLS. if you use the factory CLS tires is a guaranteed rub !!!my cousin has the SL500 wheels on a S430 but using the 245/45/18 and 265/40/18 . i know their 18" but would make the same effect with 19" . i know this because I've done it . i had my SL500 18" with 285/35/18 and it would rub most of the time. same append with the 285/30/19 . you can use the wheels but i suggest you change tire size to the recommended S class size.

Thanks for the info. I sold my car to my cousin and he found 19 AMG wheels in san diego for like $500 but no tires so I will let him know to run a bit smaller tire size for the wheels to work with no rubbing.

thanks again also he might have a set of lugs that will work off some 20's that were high et's he was running before these new wheels they might work I will have him double check.
