What is the ET of the wheels? You are risking your car looking like a 4x4. How much are you getting them for? Post some pics.

You're going to have a tough time with those tire sizes. What is the offset of the wheels?

well we have no idea, the story on the rims are. Some lady and her husband got divorce and what not. And he had bought her a e55 and put the asantis, she says there to flashy for her so shes putting the stocks on. So all she knows is the tire size and that they came off her e55(well still on). She paid around 4500 bucks for the wheels and im getting them at a steal. And they dont have a scrap or scratch on them

Well just because it's a deal doesn't mean you should get them. You have to make sure they fit first. You would need to find out the offset of the wheels. 265 is definitely too wide for the front, and depending on other factors 275 might be too wide for the back.

Nobody will be able to help you unless to have all the information about the rims.

so what you think is my best bet? I should just go mount the wheels my self outside her house, and see what happens from there.

The info should be on the inside of the rim. You need the width and the offset. Once you have that then you could see what size tires fit.

I would believe so. The usual tire size for the rear is 265/30/19.

im give those a try, i also have a set of klass wheels polished. But the front is 20x9 and the rear is 20x11. I was going to put them on girls CL but we ended up buying the car on 22" autocoutures. There 5x112 i just have the rims no tires so i can get pretty much any tire

That's not true either, people have run 20's before. Here is a link to a member running 235/35/20s front & 275/30/20s rear. Not sure how wide the wheels are though. He is also on coilovers.
