Luke help please

Luke,

I have a set of stock 18" wheels and tires off CLS500. The size are:

Front: 18x8.5 ET28 with Continental ContiSport2 (245/40/18--93Y)
Rear: 18x9.5 ET33 with Continental ContiSport2 (275/35/18--95Y)

My questions is are they gonna fit S-class (W220) without any modification?How about the new E-class (W211)?

Thanks in advance and I believe some people might have this question as well.

I think they are close to the SL wheels. If so you wont like the look. I put a set of SL 18" on for about 10 minutes. They stick out too far. And they rub slightly if you hit a small bump.

depends on the weather
they should fit either model but, you would need to roll the fenders on the W211

They will not fit a W220 properly. Offset if way too low, plus tire sizing is incorrect. It is a better fit on the W211 E-Class, and Luke is correct about the fender roll. Should fit the R230 SL-Class ok as well with no mods.
