I want to put 19x9.5 Mandrus Wilhelms all round on a 2001 clk (w208) can anyone tell me if this is possible and if so what tyre size and offset am I looking at? Will spacers or stretch tyres get me there??
I'm thinking of getting something like this and fitting them next to the foglights.

Hi everyone, I need some tyre guidance.
When I purchased my 2004 CLK 2.7 CDI a year ago I found out when I changed both rear tyres the AMG wheels were replicas and they are 8.5 J all round instead of offset as they should be. This would explain why the 225/40 tyres looked a little small in...

I have just joined the Forum and am hoping to get something out of it as well as perhaps putting something in. I bought my SLK320 this summer when the weather was good and I had just returned to the UK from a 2 month trip to Venezuela. I was overjoyed with the level of style, performance, and...
