Hi team,

just looking for recommendations for the biggest tire size for a stock 2014 G63 amg.
Looking to get a beefier look.




275/50/20 stock size
stock size is 275/50/20.

what is the biggest size I can put in without rubbing the sidewalls .

thanks

I (think) 32" is about as tall as you can go without a lift or spacers.

Not saying it's the largest, but I have 275/55/20 (31.9") without any rub. You could probably still go a bit larger.

Looks awesome. Hows the road noise on those?

I've only ever driven the G on some form of MT or AT tire. I bought it with Toyo Open Country MT and it was very loud, as in obnoxiously loud. So I switched them out for the KO2's which I've had on several trucks before the G. It's my AT tire of choice and very versatile for all conditions.

My 2006 G500 has 18" and tire rack doesn't list K02s in the proper size. What do people with 18" wheels run?

The KO2's are pretty quiet overall on the highway and are usually drowned out by wind and exhaust noise. I've had KO2's on my G55 for ~18k miles now and they've been great. Much quieter than the old Pirelli Scorpion Zero tires I had on there that had plenty of tread left, but were dated early 2012.

I'm running them in 285/60R18 which is a 31.5" tire. Plenty of room on OE G63 springs and no wheel spacers. You can probably get away with upsizing slightly without any issues.

For reference:
18" Tires
265/60R18 = 30.5"
265/65R18 = 31.5"
265/70R18 = 32.6"
275/65R18 = 32.1"
275/70R18 = 33.2"
285/60R18 = 31.5"
285/65R18 = 32.6"

20" Tires
265/60R20 = 32.5"
275/55R20 = 31.9"
275/60R20 = 33.0"
275/65R20 = 34.1"
285/55R20 = 32.3"
285/60R20 = 33.5"

Got it. Do you mind posting a side profile of your G so I can see the proportions of the tire wall? Thanks

z168

Thanks for the input. Mine will be due soon. I may go this route with the tires. Having Advan tires on the G just looks wrong

We've run 275/55R20 on our G63 and G65 with no issues. First set was BFG KO2, current set is General Grabber ATX (which have much better manners than the KO2s on-road and in the rain)

thanks.. just how I bought it- hence the change. Thanks

I have a 2016 G63 but have purchased 18" rims (Alpha) from Jacks Overlander. On these I am running 265/65/R18 as I do a lot of offroading. I have just finished a 22,000 km treak across Australia and they perfromed well across multiple tgerrain types. The higher profile tyre enables you to deflate for sand and mud so they deliver on purpose as opposed to looking 'aggressive',

sorry that wasnt a dig on you. I have Advan tires too. They are OEM tires for the G

2016-AMG-G63

Hi David, I have a 2016 G63 AMG and I’m interested in a new set of tires and wheels, as I also plan to do as much off road as possible. Would you mind sharing your wheel and tire selection?

DVR

I am running BFG All Terrains on an 18" rim provided by Jacks Overlander. The tyres are 265/65/R18. In hindsight I would get 285/60/R18 as the side profile is virtually identical which means you can deflate for sand and mud but the 265's look a little 'skinny' on the G wagon (refer p[hoto) . On my recent trip we did an iconic Australian road called the Gibb River Road. 660km of gravel with a reputation for destroying cars and tyres. Interestingly, there is a tyre repair guy midway along this road and he will only install BFG's. They handled any terrain we threw at it and they perfromed well. That said, they are not as good as the OE tyres on the bitumen.

Hope that helps

G550noob

OWN
G550 2012
running OEM 20” G63 Wheels

would a 305/50R20 fit without rubbing (with or without spacer)? Going for lower height but wider tires to stick out from fender (does not need to be much). Or do you recommend 295/50R20 and run spacers? Ive seen another gwagon run 305 but not sure how much it rubs (if any)







Wheels i have

Minoclan

I have the same setup with 31mm spacers. It seems like the best solution.

G550noob

thanks. I am currently running your setup with road tires and they only barely align with fendors. Im more interested in the wider tires.

Hi There .. new to the forum and looking for the tyre set up in your pic as im looking to get AT3s for my G500. Many Thanks

305's fit nicely with a 31mm spacer

325's fit if you get the offset of a new rim right.... 18x9.5 et25 seems to work well...

G63 on 305's not lift
G55 - 2" lift and 325s'

Scotland@123

So pic 1 is Grabber AT3s im guessing & Whats the size (305 55 20 ) .?
Thanks

Texas E63

All pics of the 63 are Toyo At2's( 305/55/20) - the 55 is running At3's (325/60/18), the III provides a decent improvement, and a bit smoother rolling casing it seems...
