What size wheels?

MBWorld Fanatic!
Fitting 20" wheels was never an issue. Finding properly load rated 20" tires (especially for the front) for E coupe (or for E sedan for that matter) with high enough sidewall (to maintane civil enough ride and "protect" wheels) to fit within those fenders (and to clear perch up front) was and still is an issue.
245/35-20 front tire would be ideal, but it does not fit due to that perch.
255/30-20 front tire does, maybe even 235/35-20. But both do not have correct load carrying rating. People, putting anything less (245/30-20, 235/30-20 or 225/35-20) upfront, are playing with fire and have no clue what they're doing.

Here are some pictures with both my set ups(winter and summer),but i ordered my self a new set of summer wheels because the old ones won't have clearance in the rear because of the new brakes.So i am selling the old ones.Anyway the set up was 255/30/20 8,5*20 et35 front and 285/25/20 10*20 et42.I had to roll my fenders for the rear.I was having problems only with 4 persons in the car.
Here are my new wheels i ordered.http://www.gmp-italy.com/IT-victoria...ollezione.html
Here's an idea about how it will look my car in about 10 days.http://www.prior-design.de/mercedes_eklassecoupe_c207.These wheels are pretty the same.

E550 coupe , S550 w221, X5m50d, Cayenne GTS
Multispokes c63 on My stock e550
Hello guys.
Ad you know i was looking fon Wheels for a long time...
I finally got the 19 black Multispokes 8j et 45 and 9j et 54.
They are OEM wheels for the C63.
They came with tires 235 and 255.
I'm going to trade in my tires for larger ones:
I was thinking maybe to keep the front tires 235 and have 275 in the back.
If I put 245 in the front . Will I need spacers ?
My car has no modifications. Not lowered and not planning on doing it .
I would like to know the best tire size to handle better.
Thank you so much

I've got a 2011 A207 that I'd like to lose the stagger on and go with rotatable tires.
I'm thinking just get a set of front or rear 18" AMG 5 spoke and go same size all around.
Should work? Or would I have to change offsets?

I'm.curious why the wider 255/20 fits but not the 245/20?

Questions about wheel size
You chose to run with 235 in the front and 275 in the rear but i told you my set up is with 255 in the front and 285 in the rear.It is a big difference and i have to tell that i have lowered my car by 30mm.Take a minute to think about it.IF SOMEONE ELSE WILL LOWER HIS CAR DO TRUST ME FOR MY SET UP.
After some research found this topic!
I own c207 e coupe, wondering will C63 alloys will fit on it without rubbering anywhere front 255/35/19 9J et25 and rear 285/30/19 10.5j et57
