1998 Mercedes-Benz CL500 Wheel Fitment Guide — What Works & What to Avoid
Your 1998 Mercedes-Benz CL500 uses a 5x112 bolt pattern and rides on 16x7.5 stock wheels with a 45mm offset. You can upgrade to larger sizes ranging from 16 inches up to 20 inches, with widths from 7.5 to 8.5 inches depending on diameter. Since this isn't a staggered setup, matching widths front and rear keeps things balanced and straightforward.
Remember that only the 5x112 bolt pattern will fit your CL500, so verify this spec before ordering. The hub-centric bore measures 66.6mm; use hub-centric rings if your new wheel's center bore exceeds this size to ensure a perfect fit. Avoid wheels with aggressive offsets or excessive widths that might rub your fenders or suspension components.
Every wheel we offer for your CL500 is confirmed to bolt on and ships free throughout the lower 48 states. Heritage Wheel, Aodhan, Motegi Racing, Work Wheels, and Rotiform 1PC are just some of the quality brands we stock in your fitment.
