Wheel Dilemma Help?
Hey Guys,
I am planning on getting another set of rims.
The Wheel specs are: 19 x 8 Ff (+32) /19 x 10 (+38) Rr
Currently on Tires:
Bridgestone Potenza Re760 Sport
Front 245/35 R19
Rear 275/30 R19
I've been reading that some people have issues fitting these on the CLK and some don't. For example the front will require spacers and the rear require rolling of the flares or they will rub? But some say the rear will not rub if car is not lowered? Anyone is actually running these specs? Cause the original owner of the wheels had them on a W209 CLK 55 with stretched tires then sold to a new owner which had the tires changed to fit properly on a W211 E63. Thank you.

Id say with the rears you might have to roll your fenders and/or go for a smaller tire size//and if you get that set up, you will want to lower the car
