C63 W205
Questions on widened thread/wheel size increased
Hi,
I have a W205 C63 sedan and just changed my wheels recently in order to give more rubber on the road. the data as follows:
From original
front: 8.5J x 19 x ET38, 245/35R19
rear: 9.5J x 19 x ET56, 265/35R19
To
front: 8.5J x 20 x ET30, 265/30/R20
rear: 10J x 20 x ET45, 285/30/R20
It works perfect, no rubbing at all.
However, since the offset changed and the tire increased. The tread certainly has been widened.
I'm just wondering whether it will affect the driving safety, especially at high speed, or in the track.
Thanks.

That is a very aggressive stance on the rear. It's been about 6 months since these phtos, have you had any rubbing? Are you planning to lower it?
I am looking at some wheels that will stick out a similar amount, but I have concerns they stick out to far. Would you recommend this to others? Do you have any more photos from behind the car? Thanks
