Largest tire size on 20" wheels??
Im about to put 20" rims (9.5 front 10.5 rear) on the E55 and in the past I have had the worst luck with cracked and bent rims!!
Im am curious to what is the largest tire size I can put on them to have the most rubber between the rim and the pavement!!?? Also without having any rubbing problems.

I'm in the same situation with my E63, seem to be alot of varying opinions but many have had 245/35 in front and 285/30 in rear without problems. That's what I went for so fingers crossed.

My cars previous owner was running 245/35 & 275/30 with no fitment issues. It all depends on your wheel setup, though.

Depends on your setup. I run a 295/25/20 Nitto. 42ET rear w/ 10.5 width rim and minimal space left from rim to fender on the rears. Fronts have a lot of space at 20x9.5 on 255/30/25 et32.
