How close is the offset on CLS500 and E55?

Want to put my friends (CLS500) Brabus rims on my E55. I know that Brabus wheels have kits (spacers) to make the wheels fit for different models. Will I be safe with the kit for his offset?

In general the CLS has a much more agressive offset than the E. You gotyta give us stats on the rims. Maybe your buddy was using spacers that you could ditch?

Called Brabus... Since all brabus wheels use the same cast, the only difference is in the spacers. You are right about the offset being more aggressive. Found out that for the E55 you need 10mm spacers all around on the E55. Brabus USA will sell the kit...
