Im sorry, but there is no way you can fit 9.5 wheels all around and not rub. Hell, the wide-body guys are only running 8.5 up front and thats with flares and cut fenders.

morgan040 & mkomaee 20's more fit the sporty side of a CL. The Dished Lorinsers would look better on a RL. The rim's couldnt possibly be 9.5.. it must be 8.5.

HONESTLY, I think you should have done more research when it came to weight and had some photoshops done before spending this much on rims. Plus now your car's going to be slower and it will make your gas mileage worse. I know cause my 19's did that and they were racing rims. But I think if you like shiney rims check out iForge. Those are great! 20's in those rims would weigh less than our 17's literally. But hey its your car dont let us tell you whats right and wrong.
Plus most of the guys on Acurazine dont prefer chrome.

Hey forget all the haters out there...I bet he has some hot groupies with that ride.. They do look heavy tho, but still looks nice and I bet you do turn some heads. Good work... I always wondered what cl would like on full face rims. Not bad at all..
Anyway, nice job!

Looks good in my opinion. I love the Black on Chrome

I've seen plenty of CL's on ugly 18's that look like ass 
When it comes to rims ghetto is,installing chrome rims that require lots of modification to fit on to a vehical i.e. cutting fenders,lifting the car and so on.A civic on 20's is ghetto,A CLS on 20's can look ghetto if you use to wide of a rim and you don't drop it.Case closed I hope you learned something

Soooo......... his car is ghetto or isn't make up ur mind guys i wanna go back to sleep..
my
- Wheels that cost that much on a car that is worth that little.... not ghetto
- 20x9.5's on a CL.... not ghetto
- Lorenzers on anything other then a MBZ (or at least on 1 of Will Smith's rides)..... still not ghetto
- All of the above on 1 car.... Pretty F#%KING GHETTO
I mean com'on now just look at it. If thats not ghetto i don't know what is.
If his parents only knew, they would take him over their knee so quick

says "hello to my TLX".
damn, that's pretty damned ugly. thats my feedback that you asked for. i mean they just aren't practical since the handling and ride get worse, right man? but like the guys said, it doesn't matter what anyone says if you like them

I'm a fan of subtle enhancements. These wheels are far from subtle. Best rim I've seen is the Axis Mod 7's. But the ofset is too low in 18s in my opinion. So, I keep looking.

I wouldnt put them on my car but i think they look sweet . When i see the pic of them it makes me think bmw or something more expensive than an acura. I like it and its def. different.
IMO Essarak Huot has the best looking CL on 20's

Whether you believe it or not, my wheels ARE 9.5" wide. if you would READ, you would find out quickly that 9.5" is the ONLY width the 20" D-93 comes in. I wish I could get one of haters to bet me about $5k. I could always use some more money. I don't care :whocares: if you guys like it or not. I 've never (until this site), gotten any negative complaints about my car. Everytime I take it to the dealership, they park it in front and and they tell me that it POSITIVELY draws customers in of all denominations and all ages. I didn't care what the wheels cost, because I buy WHAT I WANT WHEN I WANT IT, not what my allowance decides. I don't "save up" for parts and shitI would never put some cheap assed open faced wheels on my car even it was a CIVIC and especially without like 14" brakes and 6 piston calipers. No need to show off those little, cheap, OEM brakes... "BUT HEY IT'S YOUR CAR...", My wheels are not for a Benz, they are for whatever I put them on. They are FACTORY DRILLED for 5x112mm and 5x114.3mm. Lastly, for all you kids with 6" and 7" wide wheels on your car (looking like the car is about to tip over), put your $$$ where your mouth is if you doubt me...and bring your girlfriend witcha!

I am really becoming somewhat fustrated with this board. Everything that someone does to a car that is out of the ordinary or different and not mainstream, esp rim- is ghetto. Most of you would never dare say someone one was ghetto or that derogatory of a term in person. In turn, why use it so loosely in the manner it is used on this site. Ghetto is a horrible word- usually assc. with places full of minorities (jewish, black, hispanic) and very poor. If you are on this site, you have achived more than most in the "ghetto" can every dream to have, a car a computer, and your literate. If possible can we please begin to expand our horizions and actually think about actual meanings and definitions before we reply. I do not want to be anyones parent. I simply belive there are better ways to make comments.
Oh- and I think the rims look great- and if I wasnt sooo "college" maybe I could afford something of the sort.

Doesn' bother me for them to say ghetto because I KNOW they wouldn't say it to MY face. They are usually 
:gheywave: geeks that do nothing but 
all day to what others have or haven't done to a car and what they want to do! You all need your own space where you can :gheyhug:
Until later HATERS...

I don't make car payments. Here's my poor car with more mods than you will ever know (signature is limited to 500 chars).
Hey look, wheels that don't stick out of the wheel wells. 3-piece Racing Hart C2s.

This thread is hilarious. The wheels are hideous, post on a public forum, you will get public opinions. Don't want them, don't post.
Btw, a "GHETTO" is defined by the number of people living per square foot. For example: Balboa Island is considered the richest GHETTO in the world, with houses that start almost at 10 million dollars, it averages almost 5 people per square foot.

Maybe you need to check your eyesight Huckleberry. 
18" Racing Hart C2s run ~$625 a piece + Dunlop SP9090 tires all in all about $3500.
Yeah I guess I didn't wanna go the ghetto (um I mean original) route like you and buy wheels that don't fit the car.
Hey your choice. So let me guess, Saturday night you're parked outside the local Piggly Wiggly showing off the bling bling to the 16 year old high school girls?

Also, I doubt you can do a lock-to-lock (I hope you know what that means) U-turn with the specs on those wheels. Show me a picture or video and I'll quickly retract my statement.

Judging from your house pics, which I'll assume is your parent's house, you might wanna start saving a little. Or does Walmart pay enough for you to afford a place of your own?
