not stock.
something is wrong..... I did my friends C320 (non sport) with the following setup:

Ruff Racing #279 wheel with center pieced color matched to the car....
19x8.5 front & 19x9.5

Falkens 512 235/35 front & 275/30 rear... Eibach springs / #2R-#1F pads
we rolled the fender & my buddy did a little magic work on the bumper bolts.....

no rubbing what so ever... car is nice and low with nice and wide tires, puts up to 5 people in it and no rubbing!

you either got wrong offset, ot your rubbing something on the inner fender like me in my SLK.

OJ,

Falken 512 has a narower sidewalls compared to the Michelin PS2. Especially if he grind down the bolts that holds the bumper. Its will be rub free.
