G class Wheel size
I read somewhere in the forum people advising against putting +20" wheels on a G550/500. I see many people converting their G550/500 look to a G63, which includes larger wheels.
Those people never mentioned rubbing of any sort! Are they using special non OEM AMG wheels? or maybe spacers?
A width of 275 is too narrow for me, and i prefer 295 (maybe 285). I don't think I install it on the current 20" AMG wheel i have. What do you think?

I think the difference between 275 and 295 is about 3/4". You'll be the only one to notice an extra 3/8" hanging out past your fenders, and you won't be able to see it from the driver's seat. So why risk tire rub for this insignificance?

oh really! I'm trying to get a better stance, but not too aggressive. Was thinking of putting a 295 (or a little wider). Maybe put a wider fender, perhaps a G63 fender.
