So here is a few pics of my car with S55 wheels. I have 275/45/18s in the rear and 225/45/18 in the front. Let me know what you guys think.

no issues really

The wheels are original AMG's not replicas. The rear wheels fit on without any problems, no rubbing at all. Fronts i had to get 225 series tires and and a 2mm hub centric spacer in order for them to fit. They fit well and do not rub at all.

Hmmm, gives the car that stock W210 E55 look, nice! Also it looks a bit higher in the front since going down to 18" from 20".

are you sure about the tire sizes? 225/45/18 and 275/45/18 have almost 7% difference in rolling diameter. not good.

I'm not sure that matters unless you have AWD (4 matic).
I have different sized tires on my Carrera with no ill effects. It even came that way from the factory.
