I just posted last night with photos and questions but deleted i don't know y.

anyway, got my E350 2months ago and got new wheels and tires set up.

19X8.5 245/35/19 19X9.5 285/30/19 from OEMWHEELSPLUS and discount tire.

After I got wheels and tires set up, you cannot really see in the photos but I noticed that the gaps between fender and tire are different front and back. I don't know it is because staggered wheel & tire set up or not normal????

One thing I don't like these wheels, the gas milage got really lower..........

welcome to the place......the wheels are not that bad........
hope you're enjoying the ride.....can't remember seeing many 6 spoke's on our E's....

haha about gas mileage...I know the feeling....I can get about 24 to the gallon......for the first half tank, LOL......then it drops a bit to around 21 or 22......

Are you sure the tires sizes maintain the diameter of the stock wheels? It looks like you rear wheel size would be about an inch too tall and your fronts about an inch too small. Could that be the difference you are seeing? I would think your Speedometer is significantly off as well. Be careful until you can get this verified.
