Curious if anyone knows if any of these sets will just bolt right on.




I love the CSL wheels especially the finish, not chrome but I like the polished look with clearcoat.

on rhe M5 wheels I wonder if the fender lips need to get modified from the offset change???



Anyone with 19 or 20 could confirm that

I'm using the ACS type 4 X 19 inch rims. My car is on sports suspension. No rpoblem at all.

Quite a few guys in Singapore have the M166 fitted. So far no complaints.

The TC Kline 5 series uses the 19" CSL wheels with spacers. It's a really nice looking setup. I've only seen one q

Sorry--storm here kicked me off..
I've only seen one quick picture of it attatched to the Autoweek article. There is no mention of anything about an E60 anywhere on their site. Maybe someone can get them to post some pictures for us. They also use the M sport front bumper cover, and I think, Vogtland springs. Very,very sharp--from the little bit I can see.
I'm thinking the guy that owns this car is the same guy that had that e 39 with the M3 engine installed and all the trick parts. Can anybody confirm?
Anyway, the CSL is a neat setup. But that's going to be spendy, and remember, you don't want to use the front wheels from the US ZCL competition option. Not the same.

Thanks I think I will get the CSL wheels I have a good source for them.

I see others post on this site I may need rear spacers, I guess to push the rim further outward it seems?



Its worth a shot

on a Mercedes a C class wheel will not fit an S because the lug holes are different diameter and depth, so having the same bolt circle doesnt mean much, offset and diameter of lug openings are important.

Are the M3 or any 3 series lugs similar in size as the E60?

Look at Autoweek.com, and see if you can find the section about tuner cars. It was in a May isue. It's only a very small picture. Somebody at TC Kline Racing ought to get some pix up here, we'd buy some stuff.

I have this issue. If you use the original 19" CSL wheels (which I love too), you'll need 12mm spacers in the front and 18" mm spacers in the back. I don't know if you can get away with 10mm and 15 mm spacers offered by H&R though, because 12 and 18 mm are hard to get.

There are plenty of CSL replicas on ebay, but they are of different offset than the original described above. I personally love the original CSL wheels because it has that funnel shaped rear wheels (less offset). The replicas are kind of flat and don't look quite as aggressive as the original. You can get the original wheels from ebay too, at $2,350 for a set of 4.
