Whats the CORRECT spacer size for fitting 19' CL wheels 8.5 and 9.5 inch wide on a clk430? I've seen too many contradicting statements. Some say I need 8mm for the front and 12mm in the back. Some say 15mm just in the back and some said 15mm all around. Has anyone actually put 19x8.5/9.5 CL wheels on their CLK and have no problems? I appreciate any help thanx

Why don't you call the spacer mfg. They make the spacer and so they would know best.

I did, they asked me all kinds of q's that I didnt have the answer to, so I figured it would be

easier to get the info from somebody who has actually done it already.

Try calling Gaston at www.autoclass.net. He's the one who tell me which spacer sizes ..............

<br> use because he got alot of info from his customer.

PAY CLOSE ATTENTION

I HAVE CL-2 WHEELS 19' ON MY CAR AND IM USING 10MM SPACERS ALL AROUND FROM H&R!!!! WHAT FRANK SAYS IS CORRECT ALSO YOU CAN PUT 8 UP FRONT AND 12 IN THE REAR BUT YOU HAVE TO GET THOSE SPECAIL MADE!! LET ME PUT THIS IN A WAY U CAN UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN 10MM AND 12MM IS ABOUT A 1/8 OF AN INCH NOW I ASK U THIS DO U THINK U WILL SEE AN 1/8 OF AN INCH ON THE CAR???? ANSWER IS NO SO IF YOU WANT TO LISTEN TO ME AND GET SPACERS FROM H&R....THEN U WILL BE OK AND SAVING SOME $$$$ BY THE WAY I NEVER RUB EITHER UP FRONT OR THE REAR AND THE CAR SITS MINT!!!! OHHH BY THE WAY ITS LOWERED ALSO HOPE THAT HELPS!!!!<br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> <br> '

Pete..is totally right about you can't not see the different 1/8 in. I am also are using............

<br> H&R spacer too. H&R don't make 8 mm or 12 mm as standard for sale but they do make 5,10,15mm etc. The 8 and 12mm spacer are 'CUSTOM' made and also will cost you $$$$ for special order.

I just installed mine, Spacers are the same size..... but they rub

I just installed my 19X8.5 front and 19x 9.5 rear with the same size spacer.... yep they rub.... the front are sticking out to far... when I turn them all the way to eithor side i get the rubbage..... I think i might try them tomarrow with no spacer up front and see how that does...

You used the wrong size tire. Need 235 instead of 245.
