Guys running 9.5 inch rears and wheel experts, talk to me. Will these fit?
I think I'm going to pull the trigger on these wheels but am unsure of the fitment. Everything I've read here says +45 all the way around. These say +35.
First question, will these fit and fit correctly? (My car is completely stock 2011 4matic)
What size tires are you running with 9.5" rears?
Wheels in question.
8.5 fronts & 9.5 rears.

u can make them fit, with the right size tires. I would say dont do it especially on a 4 matic. The fronts will be flush, the rears will stick out almost 3/8" past your fenders. I ran +35mm in 9.5 and 8.5 on my 08 RWD 350, I cleared w 255/35/18 backs and 225/40/18 fronts, but ONLY w narrow tires. I like sumitomo HZR3's for narrows. a regular brand like contis and such wont clear, u would have to do 215/245 and thats stretching the tire. Find something w a higher offset for your 4matic, that much poke will slightly bind the AWD system w tight turns and such and might lead to premature wear of the drive system

9.5 rears need +45 or more to be safe. I'm running +50, lowered on super sports with no issues at all. There is another member on here with the same set up as mine but +44 and he reported slight rubbing. 265 rear tires.
