I have a quick question. Do you have rubbing problem with this setup?
What are the size of the tyres?
I assume the car is lowered with a module. Which brand was it?
What's the delivery lead-time?

I really don't get this obsession with oversized wheels.
That car would look much better (instead of this getto style) with stock size rims and most importantly,it's dynamics and performance would not be screwed up as they are now.

I did order Vossens in stock size for the Winter pckge for my incoming car.

Nope there’s no Rubbing but the car has had some work done to it to make the 22’s fit. If the car is under a lease we wouldn’t recommend it.
We will get you the most aggressive fitment and size without you having to make any mods to the car. The delivery time is 4-5 weeks. We do not stock anything, each set is fresh and custom made for your specific vehicle so there is no issues with rubbing or fitment.

Questions:
1. How much for 18's staggered for a CLS?
2. Can I use my Mercedes center cap?

Uhhh S class and CL need the 22s... The wheel arches on those cars are gynormous. Aftermarket 20s look tiny on that big of a car. 2 inches bigger from a standard size wheel is very common and practically a rule of thumb when going aftermarket in most cases.
20s come stock on S65 and that size looks right on the E, CLS, and SL with aftermarket wheels imo.
Props to Vossen. This car is absolutely stunning guys. The 65 is boss, the wheels flow with the car, and the stance is just right.

Max, here is the problem. I have 20's and after 1.5 years I have come to not like the ride so much. I would like to have more tire, especially on the rears, at least 30 aspect on the rear and 35 in the front.
I know some are cool with the look, and that is fine. I may be selling my 20 Vossen 083's soon and going back to a ride feel I enjoy. It's just personal preference.

You're preaching to the choir on that one. The things we do to achieve the "look" 
I have 20s on my car too. Luckily the roads in my neck of the woods are pretty good. But, when I venture out to LA. It can be absolutely horrendous borderline catastrophic if you don't pay attention to the road.
I don't drive the car much. So, it doesn't bother me.
Agreed, it really does come down to personal preference. But, aftermarket 20s on a Big bad S class is just something I couldn't live with. I would rather leave the car stock or better yet roll the 65 wheels.
