what size wheels have YOU put on your 190E?
I bought a 190E last week, and I've noticed some minor scraping while hitting big bumps, or making fast/sharp turns. The tires my buddy who sold it to me put on are pretty huge, I'd say 17in and 205 wide (but I'm not sure)
If any of you out there have changed your rims/tires what's the size you put on? And have you experienced any scraping?

Yeah, I actually talked to a wheel guy in one of those rim shops, and he said I definately had 245/45 which is just too wide. I think I'm gonna swap them out for 215/45 so I can keep the same rims. Thanks for responding!

what's the difference in the 215/45 and the 215/40? Isn't the only difference the size of the sidewall? How will that affect it?
If you are going to a rim shop have them show you both tires.
