Need help with wheel sizes

Hey gentlemen,

I found a good deal on a set of wheels. The offsets aren't exact, but will be able to fit my CLS. The person selling the wheels wants to sell with tires and isn't interested in selling the wheels themselves, and I really want the wheels. The specs are as follows:

Front wheels: 20x9.5 ET 28 w/ a 265/35/20 tire

Rear wheels: 20x11 ET 33 w/ a 305/30/20 tire

I want to know if I will have any issues fitting these tall tires into my CLS55. Do you guys think I may get some rubbing issues with such tall tires? Thanks in advanced for any insight.

The back should fit, but the front is too tall from everything I've read. Btw, I have 20x9 et 25 245/35/20 fronts and 20x11 et 28 295/30/20 rears.

Thank you for your reply. So you are running a 35 profile tire in the front and are receiving rubbing issues?
