opinions on this wheel/tire setup please - 19" AMG reps
I was thinking of purchasing these wheels in the staggered 19 variety this week. i do not have a 4-matic.
My question is
a) has anyone ever ordered these reps?
b) is the offset ideal for the E500? (because it fits all those models, so maybe they are a jack of all trades, master of none???)
c) ideal tire size for 19s of this size? i'd like to have a good size wall on there but still have a sporty aggressive look. The car will be getting lowered.
Thanks!

I'd concur with the last post. 275/30/19 Rear and 245/35/19 front. I run 235's/275's on my 4matic to keep the Overall Diameters within .1" and the fronts looks a tad narrow to be honest on the 19x8.5 wheel... 245's/275's look better and definately aggressive when lowered... However, I wouldn't say that there's alot of sidewall rubber on the rear 275's to be honest... Look at my sig...
