Went out with my friend and did a new photoshoot of my 98 E320. I haven't uploaded pictures in awhile on this forum so this is an update.

do u use spacers for your rims, and are you using the stock wheel lugs. I have 20 inch rims on my e320 but I have to use spacers because my stock lug nuts wont tighten all the way because of the rims.

Thank you and thanks for posting all the pictures for some reason my link only posted one.

Wheels are Staggered 19s with about a 4inch lip in rear.

I am all stock not lowered and Im running no spacers and 235/35s for tires up front and 265/35s in rear. I originally had 245s up front but they would rub over bumps or slight variations in the road so I got rid of them quick. The 235s are perfect and I've had no problems with them.

Im not using the stock lug nuts and Im running staggered 19s not 20s so I imagine spacers are needed for your setup. What kind of wheels/tires are you running?

where do you get your after market lug bolts? My rims came with 245/35 all four, with the stock lug bolts and spacers the tires would rub, mainly the front ones. Wasn't sure what size to get so I changed the front two to 225/30 which didn't rub but aren't sturdy enough to drive with in mexico, with so many potholes I got one flat tire then another. So I put my stock rims back on until I figure what to do. Was thinking about 235/35 or 235/30 all around .

I don't have the lug bolts company name off the top of my head. I will see If I can find the box they came with, I had my shop who I got the wheels from get them for me.

I recommend 235/30s up front, keep your tire pressure at 40psi makes low pros more durable over rough roads, buy tires with a warranty and make sure to get low pro tires with reinforced sidewalls.

All this will help you combat potholes and rough roads should you encounter them. Hope that helps and post some pictures of your car it looks good in your avi.

The wheels are velocity brand, I have the center caps but I cant use them because of the stock screws there too long and stick out. Im going to go to look around for the right lug screws because the rim doesn't tighten all the way that's why I use spacers then then the back wheels rub on the sides. Hey but the car looks sick right , I always get compliments

@LVGBENZ1356 Do you have issues with rubbing in the front. The wheels look like they stick out past the fender.

illest the 245/35 tires would rub on the front right mainly , I think only because on that side the fender is kind of like bent in a little. So I just got thinner tires on the front.
