Anybody have CLS offset wheels on a E class
The CLS factory wheels are a perfect fit on the SL's and vice-versa....
The bolt patterns are the same, they will bolt up..... But with the different Offsets you might not like how they sit under the car.. Or have a slight rubbing issue...
On my car the front wheels are pushed out just a slight hair from the fender... If it was anymore out then it is i would of taken them off....
Heres a link to the thread, CLS wheels on C
The catch is that the stock tire size on the cls55 is too big for the w211 e55 you will need to get a lower profile tire for it to look right and prevent rubbing issues.
I bought them last week.
Search CLS55 wheels on this forum and you will see a few samples.
It rained yesterday and will continue raining.. therefore I have not posted any pictures.
You will need 275/30/19 on the rears (instead of 285/30)
and
245/35/19 (instead of 255/35)
The fronts are just about perfect even if the offset pushes the wheel out...
on the rear the offset pushes the wheel a bit more.. more than stock but looks good.
these wheels look huge on a E class and makes the car look very aggressive. The ride is good.. the wife approves.
I wish I could shave off a bit of the rear rim to make it push in a bit more.. but most people will never know the difference.
Car needs a Star sys lowering to make it look just right for most car enthusiast.. but to most people it looks great.

but I could not find them.. at a good price..
my next choice was the new style 18" from the CLS550 AMG package.. similar to the E63 wheels but with they are not dark gray.
third choice was getting similar style OEM E55 wheels but wider versions. Wheels from CL, CLS, SL
I'm glad I went with the 19's...

At least that is what HRE told me, I came close to getting a set for my E55 that came off a CLS

19x9 et 37 with 255x35 tires
19x10 et 47 with 285x30 tires
I think they will but figured we have experes here!
I now have 245 in front and 285 in back. Picture was 255 front and 285 Rear
Interested to purchase 19 inch CLS Amg wheels with 255/35/19 tires all around.
Front rims are 9J with Et37
Rear rims are 10J with Et47.
The stock rims are 8.5J all around due to the 4matic. What worries me the most is will these will mess with the 4matic system because I don't want problems in the future.
Looking forward to anyone's help or input.
Thanks Sam
