Not another tire question.... 285/30/19 in rear?

i just noticed my brand new tires I put on two months ago are now bald. I am looking for a new pair of rear tires and found a set in 285/30/19 for a good deal. Same pirelli p zero I have had before and have in the front.

My wheels specs are 19x9.5 +45 in the rear and was currently running the stock 255/30/19. It made the wheel stretch and look ugly so I am happy the tires wore out so quick so I can change them.

I want to change to PSS next spring but since winter is coming quickly in the meantime can I get away with this 285/30/19 for a bit? Will it look weird on stock suspension or will it be okay?

What size are you running right now? I dont think you can get a 285 on a 19, I think that you can only get a 275.

You are too kind.

Too many repeat questions on here where no search appears to have been undertaken. There is very little about the now superseded W204 C63 that has not been asked before.

No, a 285/30/19 won't fit on the back of the C63. Maybe on stock height with the proper offset wheel (19x10 +50), but otherwise it won't.

I wouldn't put a 285 on a 9.5.

You can however, fit a 285 on a 20".
