No no 21's, they dont fill out as nice as 22's on those extra large benzo wheel wells. But really, no one here can tell me max width for front and rear 22 wheels on cl63??? Would it be say 22 x 11 rear with 22 x 10 front??? Also i hate when the wheel spokes bend back in for more lip looks kinda chessy... ^^^ and your right 21 tires are tougher to find...

No they're definately 24's, I'm just saying that ppl usualy run 22's max...And the lip is so large bc its clearly not an AMG vehicle with the bigger brakes...The proper width for CL and S AMG wheels is 9" front and 10.5" Rear....x21 or by 22

And theaoretically u can go with an 11" rear if u wanna stretch the 295 tire that is the one available for a 22" rim....No one I know does that because u have little prescious sidewall as it is ...why would u want to further stretch it on an 11" rear rim...dmoney, the easiest thing to do is call or email one of the board sponsers that sells wheels...They've done this 100's of times they know the proper set-up...Call Peter at wheelesperts.com or Ben at wheelsboutique.com....They've done it tons and will give u the information u need

Good idea, but most wheel companies said that max wheel for my "06" 997 C4S Cab was 12's rear and 8 1/2 up front, 360 wheels said they can go 13's rear and 9's upfront, that was sick because on a 13 rear you can run a 345 25 20 on the mighty P-Car, so I just like to see what 6speeders say before I hit the shops. P.S. are you serious, you can run a 24 on a CL or S class, no fu*in way bro...thats wy to firiggin big...

The reason they run 10.5" rears is because a 22 wheel needs a 22" tire obviously and the largest 22" tire they make with the correct diameter front and rear for the CL and S AMG is 295 width....for an 11" rear on a 22" wheel, u'd wanna run a 305 and the 305's they sell has a diameter that is too large...Now I run 295 on my 20" rim, but my sidewall isnt nearly as small as on a 22" so theres more room to stretch and still be fine

so I guess what you saying ^^^ is you cant run any larger set up on a CL63 than a 22 x 10.5 with 295 25 22. Is there anyway to get a 22 x 11 with a 305 25 20 on the rear ??? amazing these big car run such small set ups with such small lips WTF?

These are the only wheels tirerack sells in 305/25/22 and I def wouldnt run them on an AMG car...As stated decide where you're going to order and call them, they have much more experience in dealing with this than I do...Hope i helped a little anyway

yeah I wouldn't ride that crap either, I guess P-Zero does not make a 305 25 22. I just probally will get the 295 25 22's like everyone else, I would like a little more tire width if possible thou...and lip for that matter.........: )

I hear ya on the lip size, apparently if u put even a 4" lip in the rear u have to roll the fenders and mess with stuff to make them fit...I was high bidder on a set of wheels and asked that question...its more complicated then I could even go into on going with a 4" rear lip
