Ideal OFFSET for 20"
1. A.) 5mm should not be used for rear as there will be no hub lip left to center the wheel on and B.) if one still uses 5mm, in which case wheels will be supported by bolts only instead of a hub as should be, stock bolts can not be used - 5mm longer bolts are mandatory.
2. 10mm spacers is the only safe way to go if rear spacers are to be used, but then wheels with tires will extend a bit passed fenders.
I think you're looking at it from the wrong angle. While radius is only .1" greater its the total diameter, which is .2" or 5mm, that one needs to be concerned with. Unfortunately, there's no "extra" 5mm available.
I did try 245/35-20, which is 26.8" (only .1" diameter taller than most 245/40-19 tires), and it did not fit. Keep in mind, I tried it on W212 which has a bit more room than C207 and after what I saw on E sedan did not even bother with E coupe. Now, one might be able to squeeze 245/40-19 on W212 E350, but IMO not on C207 350/550.

Needless to say, I've changed my order to smaller tire.
Hi guys I've been reading through posts and was wondering what fits and what rubs. I have w212 lowered on vogtland springs but it doesn't specify in inches how low the drop is. I just purchased 3pc vellanos and wondering what tire size should I go with. The wheels are 20x9 et35 and 20x10.5 et41.

Rears: will stick out no matter which one (285/25-20 or 295/25-20) is used.
IMO, rear offset is too aggressive for the width by a minimum of 8mm.

Thanks threembs for your help. I couldn't find any info about running these tire sizes on the w212 forum.
I thought these wheels are for an SL550?
And I think the part numbers you list are wrong?
Wheels look great, I must get some for my 2010 E550, now that I see they fit ......

Rear alloy wheels: 19x9.5" ET48

these are meant for the cls c218
or do I need do shove off the back of the front, and add spacers to the rear?
really like the wheels and want something different from the rest.
if it works, I will be back with the pics![/QUOTE]

help me with tires for these wheels?
i want to put these wheels on my 2010 e550 coupe. it seems they fit. i found a set with the stock tires. these are the sizes:
255 35 R19 front
285 30 R19 rear
will these fit?
thanks
mike
255 35 R19 front
285 30 R19 rear

thanks
mike
285/30 is too much.Maximum 275/30.
I got my AMG wheels!
i got my 19" AMG wheels!!
parts numbers are:
PART# A231 401 1602 front 19 X 8.5" OFFSET 35.5MM.
A231 401 1702 rear 19 X 9.5" OFFSET 48MM.
i want to make them black, powedercoat glossy black, (or perhaps plastidip?)
i plan on getting 255 35 R19 & 285 30 R19 tires since i have been told here they will fit my stock suspension on my 2010 E550.
anyone know for 100% positive these tires will fit before i lay out the cash for the tires? i dont want to waste my hard earned cash if they are too fat.
might be selling my 6 spoke stock wheels soon if anyone needs them

Those offsets, front 20x8.5 et35 and rear 20x10 et42, not only will fit E550 coupe, but those are about as perfect flush offsets as you can get.
I have 20x8.5 et30 front (a bit more aggressive that et35) and 20x9.5 et37 rear (equivalent 20x10 offset would be et43). With those offsets and 235/35-20 front and 265/30-20 rear tires, I have flush fitment. If you will go with wider tires - 245/30-20 (or 255/30-20) front and 275/25-20 (or 285/25-20) rear, you'll be perfectly flush upfront and over by a few mms at rear.

I went with 20x9 and 20x10 in rear. With Nitto Invo tires set up 285/25/20 & 245/30/20. SUPER flush looking. Some people thought I lowered it...but it stock height.

35 in the front will be ok as my 38 offset still has room. I have 45 offset on 10" rim in the rear. No problem at all stock but rubs if lowered. I have 285 tire in the rear but 275 would likely be better with a 42 offset
