W212 20" rims and drop

Hello everyone! First time posting on here. I have a 2013 e350 sedan and i'm looking to purchase 20" Stance SF01 rims with the front being 20x9 and the rear being 20x10.5 with H&R sport springs. I wanted to know if this rim and spring combo will do any harm to my car. And also will this combo make my tires rub against my fenders? If so what rim/spring combo would you guys recommend to prevent that from happening?

Welcome to the board.

I would talk to the mfg of the wheel and they should be able to steer you in the right direction. And no the wheels and springs will not hurt your car as long as you do not get too aggressive with the wheel offset.

Check out this picture thread to see what other people are running on their cars.

^ Agree on the offsets above, but those tires might rub. I have those offsets and 235/35f and 275/30r (same rolling diameter) and only rub on hard bumps... which are religiously avoided, since those 30 series tires are no joke lol

edit: on second thought, maybe not. Do you have pics of that setup? Not to thread-jack... it could be useful to OP as well

Unfortunately I only have pics of an e550 with 20's and airmatic links. I couldn't find any pictures of the setup I'm trying to get.

Sorry, the pic request was for Hsg08. Here's a pic of my setup:

235/35/20x9 +32 and 275/30/20x10.5 +42 on Vogtland springs (same as H&R, but a better color imo lol)

Perfect wheel specs for (mild aggressive) set up imo.

20s with H&R springs. Just put them on, but no issues. LOOKS FANTASTIC
