W205
Im kind of a noob when it comes to the term "flush" and "poke".
But dos "Flush" mean that its aligned in a straight with the fender?
And "poke" is just outside the fender, do you have any ideer how much?
For the tire my plan is 225/40 for the front, but for the rear Im not sure
if it would be best to go down a size from 255/35 to 245/35?

Hello,

Thanks for the input. I see everyone here running 30 series tires, so I'm wondering if 35 would cause problems? But like you said, it depends on the brand. I'd prefer to get a 35 series tires for a little added comfort.

The price of that listing is 3 times what I paid for my wheels, shop around.

2010 C300 sport sedan
Test fit some wheels off my boss's mom's CLS
20"x9" fronts et+30 255 tire size
20"x10" rears et+30 295 tire size (wideness)
car is lowered with H&R super sport springs...fitment is real aggressive in the rear, but my biggest concern is clearing the front struts
..might have to shave down the backing plate a few mm, but that will bring the wheel in more and then might start hitting suspension components
...anyone tried this fitment before, getting an unreal deal on them, but want to make sure this will work!
