Hi! I would like to know if a 19 staggered rims, 19x8.5 et30 for the front and 19x9.5 et35 for the rear, will fit a 2003 e320 sports? Do I need spacers? What tires do I need to use if they fit without rubbing? Thanks!

It will fit perfectly with 245/35-19 and 275/30-19.

245/40/19 Front and 275/35/19 Rear won't work on it?

You may be Ok with it as diameters are same as 245/35-20 & 275/30-20 that many use for 20" wheels, but those are S class fitment tire sizes - you asked for W211 E320. If you car is lowered, rubbing may take place, also spacers maybe needed to push wheels out from struts.

I have airmatics. Will that be a concern?

I would not use S-class size tires in airmatic W211 E. My former 2003 E500 (airmatic) was from factory a lot lower than my 2009 (non-airmatic)4matic. On 2009 4matic I actually do use 245/35-20 (S-class size tires), but wheel gap is quit large. It (tire to fender gap) is much smaller on airmatic cars in normal hight, so I would not use that size. If you have an ability to "test fit", then its worth trying, if not and you want as high as possible sidewall, then use 255/35-19 and 285/30-19 (actually those are my preferred sizes, but I did not provide it originally as there are less tire choices) - they fit without rubbing.

Just a clarification, the wheels are ok? I don't need spacers to install it on my car? They are amg's. As for the tires, so what's the best bet? My car is on normal ride height right now and will lower it in the future.

that tire size u want will rub when ur making turns, reversing....listen to us and go with 245/35/19 and 275/30/19

kuch326

Thanks for the reply. Will 255/35/19 front and 285/30/19 rear will work?

djrabbi

front will probably rub..rear you can get away with it if offset is right.....OR

you can buy my tires

spinn

why do you want to use a different staggered size?

djrabbi

why wouldnt he? if he has RWD

spinn

I meant in regards to the recommended staggered size typically used. Why try to fit something different, if the best fit is what was recommended?

djrabbi

ohh yeah right......i have a set that will fit his car but who knows?
