anyone know if there would be any rubbing problems with Michelin Pilot Sport PS2s for a clk500? I bought HRE 447rs 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 with PS2s 235/35/19 and 265/30/19. I got a great deal for them as a package cuz me and my brother bought rims hehe. But anyone know if I would have any rubbing problems with the PS2s if I lower cuz I have heard that teh PS2s have a bigger sidewall.
uhhh im not sure lol. I know that HRE makes it to your spec so that i dont have to put spacers or anything, Im just worried about the tires rubbing when i put it on or when i lower the car. I will try to find offset, anyone know the clk500 offset?
MBWorld Fanatic!
I don't remember the offsets, but I can say that I don't have rubbing problems with my 235/35/19 and 265/30/19 SP9000s
Perhaps you should just call HRE and ask them directly?

Depending on the offset you can fit up to 275 in the rear according to Peter from Wheelexperts. Hre specs is a little more conservative but 265 has been done just not sure about the tire. This offset may be a little different from the normal CLK500 offset.
i called around and mostly everyone told me that it shouldnt be a problem. 
HREs are made to the custom fitment of your car. So having those tires shouldnt be a problem. They told me if I had 10s in the back maybe i would have to roll the fender but 265 in the back shouldnt be a problem!
