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!
If you run it off stock rim, it might be a tight fit you might get a little meatier tire look on that rim

I changed the color to Gunmetal with red inners the car goes to sema Nutek wants to make a statement with the wheel sizes ,trying to get ADV1 ,Nutek was originally started from the owner of HRE .Nutek machines its own wheels like HRE so they have a fast turn around versus waiting 4-5 months for ADV1 who subs there rims out they have done my other cars with the wow factor!!

Yes, aftermarket wheels are covered you would just have to pay the normal deductible. However, if you have suspension damaged caused by the wheels, MB will void the warranty.

Looking on the tire rack site the 305/25/20 are actually 0.3" smaller diameter than the stock tire so it should not be a problem there and if they can get a offset to clear the extra width it might work.

Same here and I actually want to stay with a stock wheel to start and a 35 tire but a little larger width like 275 or 285.

285 will fit the rear with 19 or 20" the rear is very forgiving for larger size tires they tuck up and there is not much shock travel

The diameter on those are a lot bigger plus the tires are a lot heavier.
The 25's are only 2 pounds heavier a piece. Curious to hear how much the Nuteks weigh. You want the tire/wheel combo to weigh as lil as possible otherwise it will slow the car down.

I will get the rim weight it's a forged 3 piece rim I'm sure it will weigh in a tad more I'm thinking the look will make the weight go away LOL
