what do you mean front's are different? how are they different?
Only reason why I asked for pictures was because I wanted to see how much gap it will have on the car. between the tires and the actual car. i dont like my cars to have huge gap.

Other than the front bumper, grill and fog lights there really isn't a difference in the bodies. Since the fenders are the same, I don't see how the gap would be any different.

Whether you use these, or something similar,
even in 20" size, you're just not going to get the right look until you get the ride height adjusted. You can do it via a module, links, or Star Diagnositc lowering. If anything, the gap is going to be even more pronounced with the 19's than the 18's. It s an easy fix. I'm going to try to attach a picture of my car. lowered with SDS.

Mind you there are 2 sets of these wheels with different ET values for the SL and for CLS. These have the CLS ET value.
Front: ET25
Rear: ET28
Fits perfectly and makes a slighter wider track.
Mind you (2), these are my winter wheels with 255 wheels front AND back with staggered wheels nonetheless. Makes the rear slightly skinny compared to the summer wheels.

You guys see that movie THE BUCKET LIST?
The SL55 on a part of the movie has the CLS55 wheels on it.. but actually i have seen that the CLS55 wheels do not fit on the SL, but does SERIES III wheels are made specially for the SL55.. check out the amg web site!..
anyways.. the SL55 with the Series III wheels on that movie looked SICK!!!!
