New to me 2G RL

Hi guys. I had a 2001 gold CLS. It is one of the cars in ron jons gallery. Got totaled so I bought an 09 RL. I haven't even figured out everything on the car yet or read the manuals.Some ahole hit my mirror with his/her cavelier because driveway was blocked and parked on the street. Luckily I guess it was only the mirror, still I would have liked to add that 420$ to something else. I like it so far.Got a really good deal which worries me. I have not looked around on here yet to see what I can do to it. I know I need a little more power, tint, and the wheels from my CLS will not fit so...wheel's. Maybe lower it.

Just bought an 05 RL. Really want to get a sportier better looking set of rims. I'm not a fan of the OE ones. It would be awesome if you could post some pictures if you have them.

V/R,

Thomas

Welcome Thomas,

Congrats! Wheels for the RL are very tough as clearing the front calipers is a common problem on wheel upgrades. I would search on the 2G RL board for options that previous members have used in the past. One considering any set of wheels, one important thing to keep in mind is that even if wheels will fit theoretically on a 2G RL, a test fit is critical to ensure that translates to actual fitment. Happy modding!
