f:18x8.5 +35/ r: 18x9.5 +35 on '95 Wagon
Newbie here and sorry to jump in your post. I thought to just ask here instead of starting a new thread. I did my search but could not find the answer. I'm about to pick up a 95 E320 wagon and was wondering if the setup above will work if the suspension is lowered? I am willing to roll the rear fenders. Thanks in advance.

I've had 18x8.5 with a offset of 25 on my E420 with
225.35.18s.
my second set of 18s were also 8.5 but with an offset of
35. same sized tires as well.
It's been a somewhat good learning experience....
but now I'm rockin 16x8 wheels.

When you say, "It's been a somewhat good learning experience...." does this mean the 8.5" did not work out too well?

they were the replica mono 2's. pi$$ed me off too, it took me weeks to get them, and find time to mount them. and then hours to jack up each corner with the factory jack and replace all 4 wheels before realizing the effing car wouldn't move, and then undoing it all until 3am. and then months to try and sell them so i could get another set of wheels. it upsets me just thinking about it... wheels pi$$ me off, f**k wheels man, for real.
