Question Wheel spec and HR springs

Hello all and good evening,

Before I start to ask my question, I have been fortunate to have found help on a facebook group regarding my issue. I also want to ask a forum for further guidance. As we all know, wheel spec for the c43 AMG can be a pain in the butt. However, I have found a vendor that creates custom wheels for the car. I recently ordered the stance sf07 with the dimensions 19x8.5 ETA 30 F and 19x9.5 ETA 45 R.
My first question is, how does this wheel spec look on stock height?
Second question is, are the wheel size viable when i decide to lower my car with H&R sport springs?
Lastly, I am planning to run 235/35/19 Front and 265/35/19 Rear, when lowered, are these tire sizes okay? Im talking about no rubbing on fenders and what not.

Anyhow, thank you for reading this post and have a nice night.

Though I haven’t installed them yet, I’ve ordered a set of Avant guard rims in 20x8.5 +30 front and 20x9.5 +45 rear with 245/35/20 and 275/30/20 tires. Will also be lowering on H&R springs. I don’t anticipate any issues and will report back once installed.

Your front tires should be 235/40/19 not 235/35/19. That's why I highlighted it in bold above. Sorry should have been more clear...

oh lol! im sorry for being a total noob. Thank you for pointing the obvious. With H&R springs, are you experiencing alot of scraping?
I live in socal and there's not alot of potholes here, so i am not concerned about that. We have adequate amount of speed bumps but where i live, we have plenty of sloped entrance areas and driveways. I am worried that i will be scraping alot.
What has your experience been with the springs?

Part number is 28811-2. Look around for the best price depending on your location. Got mine from Tire Rack a long time ago as they had the cheapest price but they're on backorder now...

I can't really comment on the slopes. I've encountered plenty of speed bumps though and our roads suck in NJ... again I've had no issues..

Yeah, unfortunately the springs are back ordered on many vendors, including H&R themselves. Anywho, thank you for sharing your experience and answering many of my questions!

I'd go for the adjustable (VTF) springs

Hello,

A friend of mine that works for toyo is hooking me up some tires. I believe they are called the proxes 4 plus all season. My problem is they don't carry the sizes that you have mentioned. Closest thing they have is a 245/40/19 F and 275/35/19, are these dimensions going to be okay, especially on stock height at the moment? I will lower eventually with H&R springs with the 1.2" drop but not until later when its stocked.

Thank you for your response. This should not pose any issues like rubbing or poking right? Sorry, I am not well versed on tires and wheel sizes but I greatly appreciate your help.
