I currenttly have a 09 C300 with replica AMG wheels all 4 tires are shot and to finsh it off there all diffrent brands. By the looks of it the wheels in the back are wider. It has some 235/40/18 nitto on the front that I do like on one side what would be a great matching tire for the rear?

With 235 on the front I would only be guessing that you have 8" or 8.5" and you say the rears look wider. What size are the tyres on the rear?

Without knowing the width of the rear wheel I would say minimum 255/35/18 and stay with the Nitto's.

Correct I am running a 255/35/18 nitto in the rear. I also wanted to mention that my amg replica wheels stick out a tad to far out is this usual or did I get the wrong offset?? What would be the correct one for a C 300 w amg replica wheels??
