Rims - show us what you've got
So, I'm looking to pick up a set of rims for the new CLS - something I can use in the summer and then have a set of winters mounted on the stock set. Any chance I can get some of you to post a picture of your car with an after-market set of rims. Although it’s somewhat helpful to get a picture of a rim on its own, I find I'm not imaginative enough to figure out whether it would look good on the car or not.

Did you notice any acceleration difference with those lightweight 18's? Are they avalible in 19's? Looking real nice.
Thanks, J.T.

I didn't have any NOTICEABLE gains - but I haven't dyno'd the car either

are those the ones with the maxis lip??
those are 19s right? what size tires do u have on those rims? whats the offset of the wheels and the width? before you lowered it did it rub? now that its lowered does it rub??

Thanks!! No they are not the Maxis lip, as of last week, the Maxis lip wheels were not out yet and proabaly another month(my guess it will be longer) I have 19x8 +45 offset w/235-35-19 Toyo's, the car was lowered when i got the wheels, and i only rub if i have people in the car and hit a big bump....99.9% of the time i have no rubbing issues

damn CLS, your ride is ncie as hell also! How much did u have to pay for the '03 taillights? And how much was the TL body kit?? Looks great man! By the way, hows the ride on the Tein's? Is it like stock? does it bounce? or is it kinda stiff?
Looks great!
