Id be more concerned about offset that tire size. Is the rim flush with the fender on the curb side or do yo have room for a spacer.

Sounds like you have an offset problem...not necessarily wheel size issue. If you don't have the correct offset you can correct the situation with wheel spacers based on your rubbing issue. Using spacers requires some calculation so don't rush into spacers without doing your homework. First step is to determine the offset of your AMG wheels and then look up your needs on some fitment charts that are available on wheel and tire websites or on this forum. Good luck and let us know how you make out.
