Don't know if it helps but I just replaced my OEM wheels/tires with HRE 19". I was running 275/35 NT05 on rear (235/40 on front) with zero problems, no rubbing. I have '09 C63 with PP so slightly lower than standard. They fit nicely on stock wheels. Like these tires, good grip but maybe not so great in rain.

I would like to know how 265 and 275 are going to compare lookwise. I would like the look to match 245 on the front.

Your only talking 10mm difference in width....you really won't see a difference but you might feel it with better traction. Wider is better!
Factory is 20mm difference front to back.

I can'r speak for the fronts but as far is the rear tires I am rolling with Nittos 555's on stock rear rims, the size of the tires is 275/3518 and there is absolutely no rubbing at all.
I am about to put even wider tires (285's) in the rear stock rims. I currently have Nittos 555s that lasted me almost 15000 miles.
