Does anyone know the offset for W209 CLK rims? isn't 35mm???
My plan is to replace the stock rims to 18" rims, do I need to lower the spring or change spring???
Any help would be nice!
Thank You in advance!
p.s.
no 18"+ rims - not a very good idea in Chicago

CLKfanatic and Lynn: thanks for the reply
more questions:
What is the offset for the w209 CLK??? isn't 35mm???
Let's say the CLK offset is 35mm - Can I put a 37mm offset rim to it? or vice versa???
Thank You Again

No one seems to answer my offset question...

What is offset? What is offset do? How does it work?
Thank You

MBWorld Fanatic!
Lynn did actually answer your question, just more in technical specs:
If you look at the post, "7J X 16 ET37 205/55 R16 "
ET37 represents the 37 positive offset
If you look at the post, "7J X 16 ET37 205/55 R16 "
ET37 represents the 37 positive offset
