MB AMG wheels on a CB?

[ThatOneAccord]

If i did a 5 lug conversion on my CB could i atcually fit some AMG wheels on my cb? Btw i mean AMG wheels off of like a 94-2001 SL600, or a 90s model E55.

If its the same lug pattern I see no reason as to why not.

I'm kinda wondering about size. I think the ones on the SL600 are 20s. The e55 may be 18s or 19s. I haven't looked up the sizes yet. What like the biggest wheel a CB can hold with out looking silly? I plan on dropping my cb too

[mtnbikaah]

In my opinion wheels larger than 17 look silly on a CB7. But really it is up to you.

Yea, i just looked up the rims (MB AMG W210 monoblocks) They're 18 inchers :/

Well if i slam my cb it shouldn't be too bad. I just gotta worry about the width now.
Im gonna get them painted white, when i get my hands on a set.

Seeing as most MBs are RWD, the offset will PROBABLY be wrong... most likely too low.
Mercedes Benz, like most other German manufacturers, use bolts instead of nuts to secure their wheels. I don't know for sure if this will be an issue in properly seating lugnuts. Improperly seated nuts could result in the wheel coming loose while driving.

It seems that Benz lug patterns are most commonly 5x112... is this what a Honda 5 lug conversion would end up being?

I actually have no knowledge of 5 lug conversions. thats were google comes to use.

5 lug = 5x114.3

either redrill the wheels or get adapters.

if i may put in my 2 cents i agree about 18s on a cb but they are amg wheels so i really dont know lol so if anyone has photoshop lets see what this would look like

[crazymikey]

17s or 18s look just about right on a CB. I've seen 20s on a CB and they looked too big.

I had 18s on my SE, and I wouldn't go any bigger than that personally.

if i may put in my 2 cents i agree about 18s on a cb but they are amg wheels so i really dont know lol so if anyone has photoshop lets see what this would look like

I wish there was a way i could upload the image in my mind of the CB i see in my head to the computer lol.

5 lug = 5x114.3

either redrill the wheels or get adapters.

what would adapter do? Do they go on the actual wheel or rim? Man i feel like a noob lol

Edit...I looked up wheel adapters. So basically if used a wheel adapter i could use these rims on my car? This amg wheel on a cb is starting to sound difficult lol but i know the end result will be beautiful.

I agree anything over 18's is going too far. But there is a member on here somewhere that has 20's on his shit and it actually doesn't look that bad. I'm not sure what he did as far as suspension but like I said, it came out alright. I'm sure somebody here knows who I'm talking about.

the mono blocks will not fit. i think they are 5x112 my moms car has the 17 in version of the monoblocks.

you tried already? This really puts a downer on my plan for my CB....-sigh- i bet replicas wouldn't even matter lol
