will 245 in the front fit for a w208 clk55?
i'm just curious cause im looking to buy 245s for the front and 265s for the back on 18's. i've heard that 235 is max width for the front, so i just wanna double check.

Mach430 has 245 up front, so you may want to ask him directly about any work needed and what his exact setup is.

I've had 245s in the front of my CLK55 at various times with no rubbing problems. By that I mean that it only rubs on extreme bumps or bumps at very high speed cornering. I feel this is not a problem for every day driving.
I have mounted a new set of 245s that are smaller diameter than I have tried in the past, and expect this to alleviate nearly all rubbing.
