Going from 275/30/19 to 265/35/19 in rear will this cause any issue?
I have a 2010 e550 coupe w207 RWD and while I know 275/30/19 is a size many have tried and works well I am wanting to go 265/35/19 on the rears for a better ride and some more meat. My car is a rwd not awd so I am not sure if there are any computers that would be afffected by this jump in size. It does create about a 1.9% difference between the front and rear diameter making the rears slightly taller than the fronts (I may change the fronts to suit as well later depending). I have heard some mention possible traction control issues and speed sensors causing the car to go into limp mode if I deviate too much but not clear on if this related to rwd cars. Appreciate any help on this and yes I did check out the offset/fitment thread and does not seem like anyone on there has tried this. Thanks

You'll be good. I've run rear tires more than an inch larger in diameter than fronts without issues.

Do you happen to have any pics? I've been trying to find someone running a 35 in the back but most everyone is running 30 aspect. I have a 38 offset in the rear so was thinking I would have to go with 265/35.

That's an aggressive offset. You may have tire vs wheel arch issues with 275s.

19x9.5 +56, 275/35:

Thanks... do you think I could fit 265/35 with my offset? I actually don't rub with the 275/30s unless I hit a major dip and I'm also lowered a great deal (I plan to raise it about 1.5-2" when I go up aspect size).

Ill see if I can get one. There are a few users running my same setup on the offset thread though. It fits pretty much flush with the fender maybe 1-2mm poke.

The 275 is wide for 8.5" wheels IMO. It would work, but slightly bulged. 255 fits fine on 8.5"; if you're lowered, it may rub a little in the front when cornering, with that offset.

Does that mean you ran 40s in the front? or still 35s? Also, is that stock suspension?
