245/35/19 tyres on front

Hi,
Will these fit on an early clk 320 with standard suspension?
Thanks

Those are pretty wide and will most likely rub, what are you running on the rear?

Hi,
Ive got 265/30/19 on the rear, im changing all 4 due to the whining sound these terrible fullrun tyres are making.Were on the car when i got her and were brand new but after a few thousand miles they are whining at higher speeds and very noisy t low speed not to mention awfull in the wet.Ordered 2 for the rear at that size but can get 2 fronts at 245 for very little money.
Thanks

They are quite a bit bigger than the matching circumference size that should be up there, that being 225/35's. The considerable size (circumference) difference may play havoc with your ESP as well.

In the end, cheap or not, they aren't the right size.

235.35.19 is the preferred front.
