18 in staggered rim/tire setup question
Alright.... i searched and seached, but to no avail.

question: What would be the best stagged setup with 18's for the clk500? Im looking for a setup with a meaty tire size.

I was thinking 18x8 front with 235/45 & a rear of 18x9 255/40. Is that doable?

Please advise on stagged 18in setup on a non lowered daily driver clk500. thanks.

235/40 and 265/35 is what I'd recommend.
