continental extreme DW summer tires on C63? Pics please?

Anyone have pics of the continental extreme DW summer tires on thier C63, either 255/35 or 265/35, I know the potental bulge from upsizing tire width is brand sensitive...
Thanks!

I went stock sizes for my set of DW's. The rears look great, the fronts I found to look thinner for some reason... I will try and get some pics by the weekend for you.
Overall im happy with the tires, I got a little over 15000km out of the rears (10k miles) but i found the front tires to make the car feel lighter and unplanted, not sure how better to explain it. The grip was there, it was just the overall 'feeling' was different from the stock Conti 5p.

No pics but I went 275 and is slightly ballooned. It doesn't bother me because it looks more aggressive and lets face it, the car needs the traction. 255 should be exactly the same and 265 should only be slighty wider and not noticable to 99.9% of the people out there. If you were debating going 275's then I would understand why you are asking this question. You really have nothing to worry about.
