18'' rims...would those tires size fit?
Hi again
I stored my c43 since november ( i live in montreal canada...ugly winter here , and don't like to see amg car with snow on it )
I'm looking on the market for a set of 18''' OEM monoblock rims, if can't find any use..will go for new ones.
But my main reason is not only for look, but I would like wide tires in the back,
I currently run with 235 front and 255 rear with my 17'' rims, and no rubbing issue at all! but i find that the rear set up with 8'5'' is not wide enough.
But what would be the widest I can go with the 18'' ? Is 235 front and 275 rear ( I hope so !!!![naughty](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/naughty.gif)
) fit in the back?
Also the fact the 18'' are 9'5'' rear...i guess even 255 would look better.
My suspension set up is pretty low too, i run H&R springs with number 1 pads all around. Thanks for advice !
ps:: Sorry for my bad english, i speak french and try my best for you guys![Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/rolleyes.gif)
