20" wheel and tire

Hello MBWorld,

I am new to the forum and the MB platform. I currently own a 13 535i M Sport and have owned various other cars but this is my very fist Mercedes Benz.

I have spent hours on the forum searching for information on the perfect offset and tire size for a 20" wheel fitment for the E350 Sedan RWD.

Current plans are to lower the car on H&R springs and change out the stock 18" wheels for 20x8.5 ET 35 Front and 20x9.5 ET 35 Rear.

My goal is to have a flush fitment and avoid any rubbing issues.

So my question is will the above offsets work?
What are the ideal tire size for front and rear?



Thank you all in advance.

First of all, welcome to the MB family. I also came from a BMW (335i) only few months ago.

I have the tire sizes written on my notebook but it's at work. So will have to wait till monday haha

Welcome to the forum

Im lowered on H&R springs (1,4 inch/ 3.5 cm) and have this set up.

Front: 20x9 ET-35 with 245/30/20
Back: 20x10 ET-40 with 295/25/20

It is a flush fitment. Se pics in this thread: https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...5-my-w212.html

But you could also hear with bigigg and threeMBs. They are the rims and tire gurus here, for the perfect set up.

Yes, they will work and be flush. I ran the same setup with 235x35x20 front and 275x30x20 rear tires. Read this post and good luck. https://mbworld.org/forums/e-class-w...ire-sizes.html

Thank you all for the quick responses. 235/35/20 F and 275/30/20 R is what I will run. The only down fall to that tire size is the limited brand choices.

Now I just need to pull the trigger on an E350 so I can install the HR springs /Rims/Tires that will be delivered next week..

Once again thank you all for your input will post pictures ( hopefully soon )
