245-35R20 and Perch Rubbing
While researching, I thought there were a few people running 245/35/R20 on the fronts and did not mention anything about rubbing. In my case, the 245/35 tires are rubbing the underside of the OEM shock absorber perch. Perhaps the front shock perch is lower on the 2014 E350 4matic? Previously, 245/30R20 were running fine without any rubbing, they were hard to find locally so decided to go with a little more meat on side walls and now this problem. Any ideas? Will wheel space alleviate this problem? Thx
