Thanx Jimmy. I'm waiting on the spacers now. Crossing my fingers. I remember discussing this with you and Matt. I ask the guy I ordered from about also getting spacers and he said I didn't need them. Well I guess I'll be getting free spacers.

If you run a 235 or 245 out back you might be able to get away. You going 19 or 20? Also what kind of suspension?

08' C350
I drive a 08' C350, and have some H&R super sports on the way, also have some Forgestar F14's 18x 8.5 et45/ 18x9.5 et50. I need to figure out what tire size i should buy for the forgestar's so I won't rub with the super sports installed.
Anyone have this setup or one similar?
thanks in advance

If you want to run a little stretched which may be good w supersports since they sit very low, go 225 up front and 255 out back w the same sizes I posted. It will stretch the tires a little bit and look sportier, I preferred 225 and 255 w my 18s
Jimmy posted this in the thread you made before asking the same question. Hope it helps

Look at the pictures I posted of the white C-Class. The front is 19x8.5 ET32 on 215/35/19. Hopefully the pictures will give you an idea.

I am looking forward to seeing your front fitment. Can you please take a few different angles of the front wheels.
