FITMENT ADVICE WANTED: 2008 W211 / E350
Would like to get advice on fitment for my 2008 W211 / E350 please.
I'm looking into a set of wheels that were made for a CL / S Benz.
Front: 19x8.5 with offset of 43
Back: 19x9.5 with offset of 43
Main questions I have is in regards to the offset.
1. Will these fit on my car w/out any rubbing issues or fender rolling?
2. What mods (ie. spacer, tire size, machining) would I need if any to get the best flush look?
Any additional information would be appreciated. Please be as specific as possible with info.
Thanks,
AMG4EmE

Only MBs - the best or nothing
I would use H&R spacers: 10mm front (part# 2055665) and 15mm rear (part# 3055665). You can order them from TireRack(maybe) or (for a bit less money) from ecstuning.com. If you do, make sure to order longer bolts.

Fitment
Thanks for your reply.
Will the offset in any way negatively affect the way the car looks/rides/flushness?
Thanks again.

IMHO, this will greatly enhance car's looks because the wheels will be flush with fenders. As far as ride, you should not feel much difference except it will get firmer with 19s. Also, since track will be wider and tire's sidewall shorter, it should improve cornering (somethig non-AMG W211s need). As a side note, I noticed you posted same question on a different forum with wheels' picture. I know those are expensive CL/S class wheels. If you do not mind sharing, what are you getting them for?
