tires and stretch gods what about 22's

[Richard_Gud.]

i like where you want to get to. do it.

draped up, dripped out.

I think it's gonna be a challenge to get there with your current setup man.

I think the offsets you are rolling with are too aggressive to do so, and I think the tires might be too big as well.

If you look at the merc's they are slightly tucking the wheels, whereas you are poking all around. The wheels also look to have a much thinner sidewall, either from stretching or from lower series tires.

It's gonna be hard to do, but it still might be salvageable with some work

Thats really cool and kind of funny looking at the same time.

well fitted the wheels yesterday with tires.

front


will need to be 235's for sure or 245s , we are right at the fender sitting flush with lip. Need 3-4mm from rotor and 2-4mm from wheel pad will help ...so worried on the bad though , could run coils for winter. Some rubbing , but 235 is 1inch diameter smaller rolling , that will help.
I didnt notice how to adjust for camber , need to ask around on that.

Pulled front and rear plastic shields to see a bit more.




rear
I'm going to shave the body seam near the muffler to save tires . Other than gaining ET's the rear is fine. If I can gain 5mm or more would be great. 255 is perfect for 10.5. Need 3-4from rotor and 2-4mm from wheel pad will make it dam close to flush without camber adjustment. Also 3-4mm from face of the lip will make things alot better as well.


Coils have about 1.5 left in the front and 1 in the rear with collor in now , so get the 235's , 2nd set rotors -mill them , roll fender, re fit and bottom coils

well i kinda agree so far. its going to take a bit of work ,but its the only thing I have to do with this car that is hard. the rest is easy 1day or software.

agree , one thing I really **** about this car is the 1inch flat part in the arch , it needs to go, rolled or somthing. If it rolled out well those wheels will tuck better. Ultmate goal is air ride so there is still alot of work to do.

not dead set on the wheels , but I got them for free and 22's tires are damm cheap .

Little layed out look

Damn those look huge compared to the stock wheel in the background

^^^looks like the stock wheel/tire could rest in those rear lipps^^^

[evovento]

well the 235's are on the way for the fronts , I guess I need to order the new brake rotors so i can get them out to be milled down to help the offsets.

[e.shell]

great work! not my favorite style though.

[herrakani]

I think you could just roll the fuck out of the rear fenders and lower it to the wheel lip.

Hell of a job there so far..I'm interested to see the outcome myself once it's all said and done,but had it been me...I would have went wit maybe a 20" in front and 22" in the rear to achieve the stance and look u want from the CLS.....But hell if the wheels were FREE..I would work wit what I have too!! Good luck man.GET THAT KILLA STANCE
