Hey guys just purchased a 2011 c300 white with black interior. I had 20X8.5 all around with 225X30X20 nitto tire but the tire doesnt cover the lip of the rim. Is the tire not big enough and will a bigger tire fit with no rub?? Please give me your guys opinions. Here are a few pics

Hey, I'm not sure about your question, but those wheels look pretty sweet on the white Merc!

Welcome to MBWorld.

I'm not 100% sure but a 245 should fit a 8.5 wheel like you want. Not too sure if you'll rub as I'm no wheel expert.
