It all depends on the offset and tires you put on there. My guess is no. I have W211 E55 wheels on my car right now (18x8 in the front) and it rubs when I turn hard. Its not cool and thats why they are on ebay. But the tire size is 245/45/18 winter tires. My 19's fit fine and they are 19x8.5 in the front but I only ran 235/35/19's on them.

00 clk 320 and 3 hondas. Darn I am down to 4 cars.
What do you think about 265 30 19 on an 8.5" wide rim for the back with a 35mm offset?

I have 265 30 18 on a 9.5" wide rim right now on the back and I have the 19"s waiting for tires.

265/30/19 is fine in the back. I actually have the same setup with 19x9.5's in the back and have never had issues with rubbing (H&R cup kit)

i had 265/30/19 on a 19x10 Lorinser LM-1 in the rear, with Billstein, H&R Sport, and #1 spring pads with absolutely NO rubbing in the rear even with 4 people in the car.

oh yeah...and a 9.5 will NOT fit the front of a W208. I had 19X9 w/ 235/25/19 in the front and that was pretty much maxed out.
