Hey welcome to the club! Most people around here have 18's and one or 2 people rollin on 19's I think. Most use Eibach springs and its about half and half between prokits and sportlines. I have 18's w/ 225/35 tires on my car and it looks fine. I am thinking about going to 40 series for a little more protection to the rim.

Bling Bling rims? How about Alba wheels (www.qtalloys.com)? They have three that I am considering if I go chrome. Inertia, Edge or Impulse. They even have a set-up where you can see their wheels on a CL.

Same company, different name is ATA Wheels. They only have thre designs and they are more touring looking and focused towards the Mercedes/BMW crowd, but they would look kinda cool on a CL as well. To me, they are more stock looking, but look much better than stock. Kind of a more sleeper look overall.

Me, I'm still torn between chrome which are expensive and heavy or something somewhat more racey and more lightweight.

I have the Alba Blaze 18" wheels. You can see them, just click on the link in my sig. That's with a Eibach Sportline drop too.

I think the website is like www.albawheels.com

Niche has some nice wheels too. Just go pick up a SCC or something they always have some advertisments for some bling bling wheels in there.

Yeah, Alba, QT Alloys, ATA and Emo are all the same parent company, so any of their website addys take you to the same main page.

I have to say rims is something you must decide for yourself.. pic a rim, you 'll get our opinion, but everyone has such drastic differences in taste, check our pics youll see.. GOOD LUCK... get pics of rims and post them.. we'll tell you what we think...

Take a look at the Enkei AEGIS www.enkei.com looks really nice, similar in style to the KONIG IMAGINE. I would get those but I dont think they have a 4 bolt pattern for my 2.3CL...i could be wrong...
