URGENT HELP NEEDED, Wheel Size confirmation
I am looking to upgrade my 2011 C300 with Sport package, currently running on the 17" inch stockers with 18" inch AMG Wheels.
Wheel sizes/part numbers are as follows:
FRONT:
8.5J x18H2, ET48, A212 401 28 02
REAR:
D9Jx18H2, ET54, A212 401 24 02
Will these fit my car?
Tires on these wheels seem a bit large, 245/40 front, 265/35 Rear. Tires will need to be replaced anyhow, but what size should I be running? I would think 225/40 and 255/35?
Thanks in advance.

I just fitted the C63 AMG 18" rims and tyres on my 2011 C250 and they fit perfectly without any issues with the wider tyres profile. 255 rear and 235 front.
I have a mate with a C300 and he's running 265 on the rear and 235 on the front without problems either.
They would look awesome on your car.

Looks to me that under full load, occupied with 4 passengers and possibly luggage that your C63 Wheels would be rubbing!!!???
That would most likely also be the case for your mate's car with the tire sizes you have provided.
I think I will stick with the original OEM spec.:
18x8, 225/40 18, ET50 in the FRONT
18x8.5, 255/35 18, ET54 in the REAR
