Yeah, that's on a 13... And I thought 12 was pushing it...lol That either took some ***** or somebody that knows Benz offsets very well... I'm not a stretch tire type of guy, but I like that setup... 285 in the front? I have a 305 on the rear and fronts is almost as wide as my rear...lol The problem is, the wheel I want only goes to a 20x11... Not 12 or 13... These Vossen's are gonna have to go when I find what I'm looking for....

finally joined the club with some 325 rears! Still need to lower the front and rear just waiting for the KW HAS front to settle. Will need adjustable links for the rear as the KW links don’t seem to Lower the car much in the back.

Looks great! Is that RW CF on the car or different? Mine have both (diffuser and front lip) from Renntech and they are shredded LOL......I wouldn't even give 'em away lol. Think I'll go the less expensive route this time for CF 'aero' parts RT is expensive!

What size wheel you have? "width" For some reason, they don't look 325 wide. Maybe because of the rims width... There's a guy on here that did 325's on a 11 and it didn't look as wide as the tire off the car...

The wheel is 11in wide rear that is probably why it doesn’t look as wide as the black car. Here’s another pic that shows the width a little better

Yeah, the black car is sitting on a 13... I have a 11 and was going to change the tire size to 315 or 325, but now I just found out Vossen discontinued my wheel. I should've got the 12... Now I'll have to change wheels which there isn't many I like that's out there. Most wheels only go to 10.5 or 11...

Time for a custom set of wheels my man! Built to how you want them All the wheels I've ordered from HRE were to my spec needs and for the car. I'm sure other companies will go to your specs as well, good luck mate!

i am about to pull the trigger on some wheels but im on the fence about the offsets. hopefully yall can help...

will 19x9ET25 /19x11ET32 fit? do i need to be more aggressive to flush them out? how come no one guys wider in the fronts?

im going with 19's because 1) i like the look of a meatier tire and 2) comfort.

obviously....they will be 305/30's in the back.

I decided to stick with my 305's until I buy a new set of wheels. I tried on a 325 just to see what it looks like in person in compare to the pics above, and it really didn't give me the look I was looking for. To achieve the look requires me getting a wider wheel. So this will have to do for now...



Can't understand why the tires look wider off the car than on... That is weird, but oh well...

Looks great! sometimes I forget how much my rear diffuser has covered up my AMG tips Does your car have no red calipers? Not a P30 car?

Nope no P30 but the Euro Charged E50 tune makes up for it. Has factory metallic silver calipers and factory matte silver exterior.

lol... They look much wider before you mount them. My 305 was sorta stretched on my 20x11's. This 315 should even things up. I'm not sure if you seen the 325/25 pics up top. His looked super wide before he mounted them. But to be truthful, it won't look as wide when mounted... That's on a 11 width...
