Like what Mtl20v said... 235/35/19 Front and 265/30/19 Rear

You have a conservative offset so the chances of rubbing with Super Sports is low.

2011 C300 Sport

I'm new to this forum, and I am starting to become quite confused on this whole wheel thing. You guys seem to know more than the dealer I've been asking. I'm trying to find a nice set of rims for my dad. He's got a 2011 C300 4matic Sport. Can any of you tell me which (if any) of these rims will fit his car properly (no rubbing or sticking out or anything)?

Thanks!

The title of this listing says it'll fit 2008-Present C300. But when I put in my cars info (2011 C300 4matic Sport), it says they're not compatible. Are you sure these wheels should work well?? I'm not going to lower the car at all.

Yes, they will fit fine. You may want to use some 10-15 Mm spacers to bring the rears out a bit otherwise your rears will sit into the wheel well a bit more

Somehow i got stuck with 19 x 9.5 rears with a 35 offset, and with 265/30/19's they rub slightly. Would switching to 255/30's fix the issue? Or should the fenders be rolled?

You won't rub. That is what I have and my rims are ET44.

Wheels rubbing

Hi guys,

Quick one. Bought Forgestar F14 for my 08 C300 sport and tried fitting on the wheels, and it was rubbing my strut. Any advise?

I am currently running 245/40/18 8.5 ET 44 on the front and 265/35/18 9.5 ET 50 on the rear.

Please let me know what I can do to solve this issue.

2010 MBZ C300 4matic

First off I would go with a 235/40R18 to bring the height down to where is should be. That should solve your problem. The 245/40R18 is too tall for the C Class.

2008 c350 4matic

Hey guys,
I picked up a set of HRE 19x8.5 front, 19x9.5 rear for my 2008 c350 4matic.
From my measurements the offset seems to be ET43 all around. Should these fit my car??
Tire sizes I'm thinking: 235/35R19 and 255/30R19

From what I am understanding from this thread they should fit, but when I mounted tires (just used an old set of 245/35R19 I had around for a test fit) and put them on the car they poke out what to me looks like ALOT. Looks like I will get a very small amount of rub on the inner wheel well up front and can't tell for sure but looks like I will rub in the back with passengers when I hit bumps.
Any suggestions for what I can do? Has anyone had the wheel hub face machined to increase the offset?
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. Take a look at the pictures and tell me what you think.
