C63 Edition 1 Coupe
C63 edition 1 tire size

hi, im looking to buy new tires for my 2012 c63 edition 1 coupe, i believe my rim width is 8' fronts and 9' rears im looking to install wider tires, is it possible to go 245 35 19 fronts and 285 30 19 rears. tires usually dont last me because of my driving so not looking to spend big bucks on high quality ones.

I think with 265*30*19 you are safe especially with stock height. I am installing a set of Toyo R888 this week (it is not driven in rain or the winter) and going with that size and (235*35*19 front). R888 will hook hard, I have used them on all my sports cars and they work the best. They were the only "street legal" tire that remotely got traction with my 800 rwhp Supra.

If its traction your looking for, you don't need a 285 rear that will rub... just get a good tire.

W204 C63 Coupe, W166 ML350 BlueTEC, 928GT, C5 Z06 & IS300 race cars, EQE 4Matic+ on order
The Edition 1 wheels are no different from other C63 wheels in terms of tire size and fitment, so what applies to the rest of the cars applies to it as well. There are LOTS of tire size / fitment / spacer installation discussions in the C63 forum.
