Cool ML 4Matic 20 x 8.5 Wheel but need Tire size??

First Time Poster...
Just ordered some black AMG wheels OEM 20 x 8.5 with ET35 and am trying to shop around for the tire size options. Seller says 265/45/20 should work, but I've also heard 255/50/20 and 255/55/20 are options...

So I come to you all ...

Anyone have thoughts or experience with this so I can go ahead and order the tires???

Thanks!

I have the 19" AMG wheels running 255/50 tires on my 4matic ML550. The 255s have performed fine. Unless you're just going for look, I don't see the need for 265s. What size wheels do you have now? You just need to ensure that the final OD is the same as what you have now to keep the speedo properly calibrated.

It's an inch above what I have now and there are several factory models with stock 20 x 8.5 wheels bud. Axle will be fine. I just need tire size options.

There's nothing more sleek than factory sport sleek looking wheels.
