Most aggressive set-ups for 19s

Hello everyone I'm about to purchase a used 2011/2012 Mercedes-Benz E350 or E550 Coupe, which ever I find first in a white/red color combination. My question to you guys is what is the most aggressive set-up this car can take in 19s? After doing a bit of research it seems 245/35/19 in the front and 275/30/19s is the max I can go. Has anyone run anything more aggressive than this? Another thread on here had someone running 255s in the front but there was a bit of rubbing.

I wish there was a sticky thread for wheels and tires.

Would 19x10 +30 fit in the rear? I'm willing to roll my fenders.

if you want to go 19x10 then +45 ?

Is the car standard ride height or lowered? Or do you plan on lowering the car?

For a 10" width is recommended to lower the car if you want a nice clean look,Maximum low offset is 42,it is the lowest i have used,now i use +45.

So many variables ...

Also depends on the rubber that you intend to use. If you go with 275's then Nab and Gavro are correct that et45 would probably give you the most flush fitment, however, if you want to run 285's then you may want to consider et50 for a flush fitment. I am running 19X10et50 with 275's and am happy with the fitment, some might prefer a more aggressive poke with et45.

No plans to drop the car. I wouldn't mind a 9.5 wheel but how does a 275 tire look on a 9.5 wheel? I guess I could go with ET35 on a 9.5 wheel?
