First off, you need to know what your rim size is, diameter and width.

On our ML, I'm running aftermarket 20" x 10.5" with a 40mm offset along with 295/40R 20 tires. Rear's been dropped almost 2". No rubbing anywhere.
But, if I had to do it all over again, I'd look for a 10" wide rim with a 45mm offset so as to tuck the tires into the wheel-wells ever so slightly.

Can 22x11 fit in the rear of a 2015 ML350?

I’m thinking of purchasing some aftermarket wheels and I was just curious to know if anyone tried to install 22x10 in the front and 22x11 in the rear ... I had a 2013 BMW X5 xdrive50i and I was able to install 22x11 in the front and 22x12 in the rear ... I am not planning to lower the ML .... Thanks In Advance

I am running 275 55 20 on my ML63 knock off wheels. They dont rub but throw a code in the transmission for "Implausible Tire Size" so your check engine light will be on.
