Please help with ASA wheel size ASAP
I have an 03 clk 55. I wanted to get some ASA st4 19" wheels, but tirerack doesn't really recommend the size. I've seen these wheels on the last style clk, so I was wondering will they fit? What are my best non rub tire sizes?
wheels 19x8.5 19x9.5 offsets are 37mm front 31mm rear.
Thanks,
Jonathan

I see that tire rack says that the oz superleggera III wheels work in a 19x8.5 19x9.5 with 32mm offsets front and rear. This is only 5mm different in the front and 1mm different in the rear, shouldn't the ASAs work?

ohhhh no, well in that case I'm going to be upset in a couple of days when they come. I already ordered them, just posted on here to "make sure" they fit.... front is a 37mm offset, if I use a 5mm spacer that would bring it down to 32mm.. Are you 100% sure that won't work, or should I wait to try them before I get upset?
I talked to a guy selling them on ebay before I bought them, he said they would work perfect. I then talked to a guy at tirerack and he said offsets are too far off to be recommended, then I called again to tirerack and the guy said the offset should work fine, it was probably just an error in the database that kept them from showing up as a proper fitment...

depends on the weather
now .... I'm not trying to be rude here but, I have repeatedly said they do not fit the car correctly .. & .. I do not endorse the use of generic spacers just to make something work which is not designed into an application specific use ....

Okay, thanks for the help.. I didn't mean to keep pushing it. Its just that I ordered them before I ever posted on here. Then I found this forum and decided that I should post and make sure I wouldn't have any issues. I just wish I would have posted here a couple of days earlier.... Then I would have never bought them.
I kind of went into damage control, and just want them to fit if its possible...
thanks for the advice, I'll let you know what I come up with.
