can someone give me the run down on what wheel offsets and tires will fir my cls55?

i want to get some new wheels for my car, looking for some oem 19s or possibly 20s.

i have some 295 on my car right now and the car still roasts them so want to stick with a 275 minimum would try up to 305 depending if i can fir a 305/35/ 20 or 19.

what kind of offsets work on a cls55 with around a 305 for width stock amg brakes?

I have 20x11" et25 with 295/30/20's and no rub issues. I've seen 315/30/20 on Sirboostalot's CLS.

whats the biggest offset that you guys recommend before the wheels start looking like they are sunk into the wheel. et 20 for rear seems to be flush with the rear quarters and something like 25 up front?

Im running a 20x10.5 20 et in the rear and a 20x9 22et in the front. I'm lowered about an 1.5" all around and dont ever rub.

305's on the back, but still way easy to break em loose. If traction is your goal I DO NOT recommend running a narrower tire unless its a drag radial.
