Hi, is it wise to spacers with wheels?

ive used 3mm ones before on a st205 to clear the calipers , without issues , depends what size and you may also require longer wheel bolts.

I've got 30mm spacers all round (because it needs them)...
No problem at all, improved the handling no-end, lower roll angles too. But they do give a little bit more kick-back through the steering over bumps, due to king-pin angle offset.
A good thing really, people are always moaning about how dead Mercedes steering is....

I had 16mm Hubcentric spacers on the rear of my old CL55 for six years, no problem.

Buy quality hub-centric spacers. Anything else is prone to vibration and breakage. H&R are good on Mercs. I have them on my AMG with no issues.
