20” wheels on my CLS

[SA11OWZ]

Hi there I’m buying some 3sdm 0.04 for my CLS 2005
I’m going for 9x20 on the front and 10.5x20 rear and am going to be fitting lowering links.
I was wondering what size tyres to go for can anyone help

I don't understand...

Many physics laws not in favour too of the weight penalty of big wide wheels .

I don't think the OP is asking if you understand or not, it is advice on tyre size he is after

@SA11OWZ I will double check what I had on my rims of that size, am sure the fronts were 255/30/20 and the rears 295/25/20.

I have slightly wider tyres on at the min, as I have 11j wide rims at the rear with a 305/25/20.

I think those are the sizes I have on my R230. It looks great, but the wheels have needed repeated repairs due to potholes and as a motorcyclist I am constantly on the lookout for those. But some you just cannot avoid.

Hi ! So the cars all done and I’m so happy with it
Gone for 235/35 on the front and 245/35 rear. Lowered using airmatic lowering links the chap is so helpful I would recommend

How much did your dental insurance cost when you told the insurer that you'd done that to your car??? Did you also tell your car insurer, as that's quite a modification, would hate for you to have an incident and find out the hard way that sue to modification your insurance was invalid!!

It drives as good as it did on the airmatic, and yes of course, I don’t go racing around it’s just to look good
