What are the offsets of the wheels?
As for tire size, to keep close the OEM rolling diameter, go 235/30 or 245/30 fronts and 265/25 or 275/25 rears. I would go for the 245/275 combo.
Ride quality will change. On the Airmatic, I've been pleasantly surprised that the ride quality is still pretty good, even on my 20s. If you do not have the Airmatic system and you are on springs/shocks, it has been my experience (with other cars) that reduction in rubber will always result in ride quality degradation.

tnx for the reply
the offset is 43
and you think is it a fair price to get it for $700 without tires?
and this will fit my 05 e320 without any rubbing or spacers needed ?
