Question for luke...
I'm about to buy some new wheels for my S500 01'
How wide of a wheel can I put up front? I have 18"x9" all around now.
I'm hoping to run a staggered set of 19"x9.5" up front and 19"x10" in the rear
Also I know the recomended wheel fitment is 5112 bolt patern w/44 off set I've seen lots of adds saying My S class can fit anywhere from 35-44 off set is this true?? Thanks in advance...Sean..

depends on the weather
I have seen 9.5's and even 10's on the car and yes even in the front ... with a 9.5 you can run between 36 and 43 offset ... .but, the lower the offset the more possibilities you will have too roll the fenders
