Installed CLS55 wheels on E55

I finally installed my CLS55 wheels. I used Michelin Pilot Sport PS2 275/30/19 on rear and 245/35/19 on front. NO RUBBING AT ALL!!!! I also was able to use the same studs to bolt up the wheels.

Those wheels look great on the car. Just please lose that grill - THEN it'd be perfect.

Tire Rack does not have these. I ordered them from the dealer. Total with tires it was about $6500.

As for the grill, I like the grill, thats why I bought it. I feel that it updates the car and sets it apart from the others.

Thanks!!!
