Bigger tires for CLS53

I have a 2021 CLS53. Have bent 2 wheels now due to the crap Pirelli low profile tires (and sh*tty roads). So frustrated. And now one of my tires is splitting so I have to get new ones ASAP. Only have 16,000 miles so needless to say I don't want Pirelli's and I'd like just a little more sidewall so that I don't have to keep having my wheels repaired. Have searched the threads and didn't find where anyone has changed the tire size. Just trying to see if anyone has and if it fit ok. Was thinking of going from 245/35 to 245/40 in front and from 275/30 to 275/35 in rear. I have the black 20" AMG rims.

I ended up getting Michelin PIlot Sport 245/40 ZR20 on the front and 275/35 ZR20 on the rear. Made a huge difference!!!!! Almost like a new car the ride is so much better. AND, when they replaced my tires, 3 of my 4 wheels were bent and had to be trued. Totally worth it to have nice tires on the car. I would say MBZ needs to get it together and put real tires on the car but they are discontinuing the CLS so it's a moot point now. Good luck!

Fantastic!! I had the same idea for my CLS53, for the same issues.
Based on rough measurements it looks like the fenders can handle the bigger dia.
Can you send a pic?
