Anything is possible, however not recommended. What car will they be going on, your CLK? If so I'm almost positive they will fit just fine.

Based on all the research I've done there are numerous people running 20mm offsets or even lower on 9"+ wide wheels and have no problem rubbing so you should be just fine.

99CLK320,
the oem offset for the CLK is 35mm with a 7" rim on a 320. the lower the offset the further out the rim goes so with a 9.5" rear rim with 19mm offset it will push the tire(already 2.5" wider than oem) out 16mm I'm thinking out loud to try and figure this out. What car did you have them on and what is the bore 66.6? Also, I was looking at the pic with the serial number: is the second series of numbers 490013611? Would like to contact Fikse for an opinion. TIA, DLB

99CLK320,
Michael, Alan from Fikse said, based on the serial#, the rears are 18X9 ET25 and with those tires I would have to roll the rear fenders for them to work. As much as I would love to have these, GREAT PRICE, they won't work. Thanks for your patience.

Wow thanks for the heads up, that's odd as Alan is the one that originally emailed me the specs and said the rears were 19mm. I always thought they seemed a little higher than that so 25mm makes a lot more sense. You could always just buy the wheels and put some smaller tires on there... the tires on there currently really are not in that great of shape anyways.

I will be shipping them in individual tightly packed boxes and the total cost of shipping just the wheels should be just a little over $100.

*grinds teeth*
bah! you really need to just get these sold! I keep looking at this thread and picturing those wheels on my car.
They sure would look nice on a black C55 wouldn't they?
