SOUND WHEEL ADVICE...

506 Views 3 Replies 3 Participants Last post by  RickoJC
Excuse my "rookieness" but I have just bought my first benz and am super excited (04 CLK55 AMG). It comes with these fancy 17inch chrome wheels that I am not keen on (is there a market to sell them).

My request for help is, what is the ideal performance set up for this car.

18 or 19 inch wheels?

What does offset mean?

What does staggered mean (the same as offset)?

Why are the front and back tires different sizes?

And finally assuming an larger rim what size/type tires should I get for maximum safety and performance.

My first post and already I am asking a lot of questions :)

Thanks,

Rick.:bowdown:
