Yes they will, I run them on a w220 which has less room.. Check the CL threads.. I know people who run 20's with a 275 rear... all day long.

I'm running 275/35ZR19 PS 2's installed by Brabus on mine. The fenders need to be rolled. They do not rub.

Bux, don't give up on the 275's ... you may find that your fenders have already been "rolled". Gee, I wonder who would have done that ??

My recommendation is that you try the CL65 rims with a "lower-grade" 275 first. That way, if you do find that you have rubbing you've invested in a cheaper 275 and then you can go with a high-grade 265 if need be.

Given all the naysayers, I would have almost given up on my plans to fill the cavernous space left over from my 275's (granted on 18's with a 2003) with 295's.
