Just spend the last hour on Tire Rack comparing every tire and the difference in width between the 275 and 265 is just about nothing on the AMG wheels, except the price I guess.
285's though would make a big difference. I will have to wait and see who decides to try 285's first and go from there.
I can't seem to find what the wheel width's are. I am assuming 8.5 and 9.5

Exactly! There is barely a diff between 265 and 275.
I think the best bet for factory rims are 255/35 and 285/30.
ETA the new coupe spy thread is spotted with ^ those ^ same size Conti Sport contacts

I'm also keen to hear the response from JPMBenz's question regarding what width and profile you went with in the front? 265's?

Yeah my rears came out perfect. I need 3mm more in the front. Mine looked bad cause the stretched tires. They fit really nice now. I'm getting. I personally think you should go with a darker rim only because the car looks to silver but other than that it's a sick set up. It's going to look sick dropped.

must have been the caffeine, heroin and vodka cocktail for breakfast. Doesn't start the brain in the right way if you know what I mean... 
Apologies.I wouldn't want to go any lower a profile than 35 tbh - not for some of our roads around where I live...
Based on the 20" rims and wheel specs above, I'll assume 285/35/19's is going to be no problem in the rear then. Also hoping 265/35/19s in the front will not be an issue. I'll have this all checked out though once I get the car.
@Kingmonkey - car looks awesome dude. Ring its neck!
