Wheel guru question
Can I fit these 17x7's on my CLS. I think I can, but I am concerned that the lip will offset the wheel too much.

Thx

What offset do they offer them with? You want to be as close to +45 (or higher) as possible

The site doesn't say what the offset is. I guess I will call and ask. Thanks for the info.

With a fat lip like that, chances are the offset is too low for our cars. The only rim I know of that has a fat lip and good offset is the Axis Se7en Mod.

Since when?

+45 or higher will work fine with a 7" wide wheel.

This is the stock setup, +45 might work too, I have +45 with 18x7.5
