They look great! You might double check the ET. Do you have a rubbing problem?

Looks like they don't fit. Wheels would look awesome in chrome.

They look good, but I think your going to rub like hell though. I don't think the offset is right IMO.

Well Bobo,

You got a good deal on those slick wheels, but I'm also concerned if you'll get rubbing or if you can even turn your steering wheel fully to the right or left. I fear your offset is just too low.

If everything really checks out fine during an all-conditions road test, then congratulations and enjoy the ride.

tire rack recommends the 17 inch version with the same offset for TLs. does that say anything about the 19 inch version? my friend who is selling them to me had them on his 55 offset lowered cls without rubbing. what do you guys think?

According to the pictures... they don't look like they fit right... (as if, you haven't been told enough), but if they're 19" with 55 offset, it should fit... how wide are they?

I have 19"x8" wheels with a 51mm offset, 1.75 lowered in front and back, fender rolled (just a little, can't even tell), and NO rubbing at all.

I DO like those wheels though!!!

so the rims are 55 offset? that is good up to 8.5" rim widths! but are you certain? what is the rim width and tire size? purely a guess, they look like 19x8.5s with a 45ish offset.

so you meant 45 instead of 55 (typo)? that's probably why you need to trim some stuff. looks alright...they're 19s but it looks too much like stock though.

The wheels look tight. If I get these in 18's, would I have to mess with the fender or rubbing? It would not be lowered.

18x7.5, 45 offset, 225/40/18 will fit good.

Those pics in his website are alittle deceiving. I don't think he tighten the lugs all the way in.
He should have pics with all of them correctly mounted soon! They do look awesome. They don't really stick out at all, the fronts are at the fender line if not a couple of mm out. The fronts rub on hard corning and big dips. He may to some modifications to the front inner linings. The rears are fine except we had to shave off the plastic tabs.
They are a very shiny silver, looks very aggressive!
Just to comfirm, they are 19x8 +45 with 225/35-19 tires.

Do these come in 18". At tire rack it only lists it for 17". You guys think 17" of this kind is worth buying or should I go 18"?

Sorry to bring up an old thread but I am looking into buying these in 18 and having them dipped. Did you have to roll or cut your fender for 18*7.5?
