a 265/30/20 will be almost 5% larger than the stock ones you have and your speedo will be off by 3 or so MPH. Which brand are you looking at for the 265?

Is this correct? I have heard some local people telling the height is not matching and telling me that it is not the correct size.. Yet i see most c63 on 20" with this size..

Please help!

Wheels are:
20x8.5
20x10
The offsets are ET39 and ET51


Thanks so much guys!
I have 20 x 9.5 on rear ET 51 with 285 25 20 and lowered on coilovers and it's fine. Rubs very very slightly over dips in road if I have people in the back.
I think with a 10" rim you will need 265 or 275. Alternatively you may need to shave the base plate of the wheel if it is scraping

Its probably these:

Dunlop SP Sport Maxx GT 265/30ZR20 Section Width (10.7") $380

The 10" rim will look a tad wide with that 10.7" Section Width.
The 55 offset is only .03 more inwards so that sectional width should be ok.

Seriously, just get the nitto 275/25 from the state & u will be set. 235/30 or 245/30 for the front should be fine.

245/30/20's in the front should be a problem. I would still recommend 275/25/20's in the rear for peace of mind.

The problem with 20s is limited tire selection and the best tires are not available.
