Questions on CLS550 Offsets???

I want to know what is the most aggressive offsets for CLS 550 with out tires rubbing the fender? I am thinking of putting 245-35-20's in the front and 275-30-20's in the rear. Most likely, call will eventually be lowered.

Also, what suspension kits or coil-overs are available for CLS550?

Thanks in advance!!!

Same as current SL (R230) - from 15mm to 20mm front and/or rear. With those offsets and tire sizes, use front wheels width - 8.5-9, rear wheels width - 9.5-10.

So what your saying is 8.5 with 15mm offset or 9 with 20mm offset for the front and 9.5 with 15mm offset or 10 with 20mm offset for the rear, right?

Also I am planning on lowering the car. What's is the best and most cost effective way?
