Hey All,

Something fell through with the OEM 19's, and I need to get a set of tires for my Stocker 18's.

Just to confirm, most people are running the following on OEM 18's?

245/40/18 Front
275/35/18 Rear

In Michelin PSS

Is this correct?

if you are standard height or only have springs you should be good with that setup. PSS's are known to cause rubbing issues with really low cars because of the squareness in the tire at 275.

is this the size that most guys run to get the best milage out of them?

and can anyone else confirm this is fine on H&R Springs?

U should be fine with 275/35/18 PSS & ur drop. Many ppl have done it on the forum.. Even on the OEM 19's (275/30/19).

Btw, sorry to hear ur deal didn't work out with C63-AMG.

Read this thread, lots of ppl running 275/35/18 on stock rims.. Even with the widest tires (Yokohamas ADV sport).

Here is another thread about PSS:

be advised that you will get a taller sidewall with 275/35. if you think that will bother you, try to find a lower aspect ratio, like a 30.

with better traction and wear, I feel like its a decent trade off

xcharlesy

does anyone have pics of the bigger sidewall on our car with 275 / PSS? Would greatly appreciate seeing this
