New rims on my CLS550!

Decided to upgrade the CLS550. First i got the 20% tint, then bought some 3 piece Forged GFG Nice 5's on ContiSport Contact 2 Giovanna Edition tires.
20x9.5 in the front -2.25"lip
20x11 in the rear -4.5" lip (305's in the rear!)
Next: Rear lip and window spoilers and lowering module!

Thanks man! Me and my father own 2 Engineering firms that have to do with all construction testing of materials (one company-Metric Testing Lab) as well as all engineering services, inspections, and consulting (other company-Metric Consulting and Inspection). Tough work sometimes and a lot of stress and headaches but it def. pays off in the end.

Im starting to think the store i bought them from meant 20x11 cause it doesnt look like 12 and several ppl said they werent, im def. gonna ask them again, either way i payed the same price so wouldnt really affect me, plus i believe the 12 in the rear would make it stick out past the fender which wouldnt look good at all so ill get back to you and everyone else on that. Btw really sweet cars you got!
