Will OEM CLS AMG 18" wheels fit a 2003 E55 AMG? The tires are 255/40/18 front and 285/35/18 rear.

Thanks

the front tires may rub and the offsets on the CLS wheels are low offset. The front will be fine except for that tire size as you need a 245. The rear will be okay but may rub due to the offset.

Thanks for the info. It seems that I need an offset no lower than +30 in order to fit a 285 tire in the rear.

the offset in the rear should be between 38-42. et30 is too low!

You can run them on a e55 with a 245-35 f and a 275-30 r the offset are on the extreem

but if you have your heart set on a 285 it all depends on the rim diameter. im running now a 285-25 on a 20" wheel with a 37 offset , same set up lowered 2" .
