have any one attempt to fit a 295 tire on the rear wheel of a 19x10" rim ?

if so did it work??

if there was rubbing was it on the inside part of the wheel well or on the inside of the fender?

i am considering tring it,

Try bigfoot wheels and you can crush cars.

I have 275 on mine. Its a snug fit. I also rolled the wheel well. My car is a bit lower now, old pic.

Can't say that I ever did - the max I put on the rears are 255/18/40.

Same here, 275 is the widest I ever put on the rear with 19X10 and I couldn't even get a figure in there after I lowered it.

If thats your car in your sig and you plan to keep it that low...295 is a NO NO!

i would like to tell u that it'll fit, but i'd be lying.

the truth is that a 265/30/19 just about clears the fenders on a 10j, 35 offset. i've attempted a 285/30/20 on a 40 offset 9.5j and it didnt work. u also run the risk of the tire looking 'funny' on the rim...sidewalls may look like they are falling outwards. the 275/30/19 that the guys spoke of above have to be the most extreme on a w210 that i've heard of.

the 265 looks slick on a 10j... opt for that rather.

jus my 2c.

CAPPAFIRE - what rims are on that car in your sig? and what body kit? I have the same color car '98 E300 Td but I never thougt it could look like that! Plus I didn't think it would look good with window tint - but that car is awsome

Do you have more pics you could send or post??? Tell me more...

Beautiful Car!

I fit a 335/35 17 on a 17x8 wheel. Worked fine and with the overlap because of the smaller rim you don't ahve to lower your tire pressure to get more tread on the raod for racing!

Ok guys here is the situation.
I had my car painted 5 months ago, what I had the body guy did was roll out all 4 of my fenders(he rolled it out a lot, especially the rear), so right now my 275/30/19 tire witch used to fit snut in the rear wheel well, has about 3/4" gap from the fender to the tire, also their is a 1/2 gap between the inner part of the fender and the inside part of the tire, so I think it might work, what I am going to do is buy a used 295/30/19 tire and put it on one side and see how it works,
if it rubs, i would be wasting $50
if it works, imaging how wide those rear tires would look from the back?

here are some pic of my car i took at roosevelt island,
also pic of my rim off the car witch i am cleaning up right now,

The kit i have is a carlsson full body kit,
I know this guy who has to mold, he makes them to order and it takes 1 to 2 weeks,

the wheels are Work wheels, the company makes the wheel to the exact spec of your offset and backspacing to give you the biggest lip possible,
The wheels are custom order thru japan, and it could take up to 6 months to get a set.

Thanks Caapafire!

When you can - shoot me more info. on the guy with the molds for the Carlsson kit.

The fourth pic is the $-shot!!! The car is awsome looking!

Good luck with the fitment! Hope it works out.
