How big can i go??

im thinking about new wheels for my cl9, just want to know the biggest wheels that will fit without any problems/rubbing.
Currently have 18x8 konigs with 225/40/18 tyres on it with no probs
Was wondering about 19x8.5 or 19x8, probably have 235/35/19 tyres

I was thinking the same thing.You're not going to notice much difference looks or handling wise going from 18s-19s.

Yeh seems like a bit of a waste of money going from 18" to 19" why not go 20" if you want bigger rims?

the wheels i want come in 18x8.5 or 19x8.5 i think as well as larger sizes. i dont think they sell them in aus tho, but know they r available in nz. They are DTM vettels

Go 18x8.5 imo, bigger than 18" look odd on our car imo.
If u are getting DTM's i have a set you can buy :) 18x9.5 +25
