255/35/20 & 305/25/20 tires ok?

Hey guys,

So just got Vossen VFS2s installed on my 2015 CLS63.

The shop installed 255/35/20s in the front and 305/25/20s in the rear.

The rolling circumference seems too large in the front no?

Do you guys know if this will cause any issues?

Thanks for any input guys and will post pics shortly!

Street

The shop told me they were installing 255/30s... But instead they installed the 255/35.

From a looks perspective, it doesn't make a difference to me. I'm concerned the different rolling diameter could be bad for the car?

Yea, I'm running 255/30 up front & 305/25 in the rear. I think you should go back & tell them to put the 30 up front.
