Newbie Question....
Okay I have a 2001 s430 with 20 inch rims, decided I wanted to go to a more conservative stock look and got a set of amg chrome staggered rims...However the tires in the back are rubbing when ever I hit a bump mostly on the right side... Mercedes says they shouldnt and cant find the reason they do....Help please I really like these rims....here is the offsets and info

Front A2204010802 8.5 inch

ET44

Tire 245/45/18



Rear A2204011902 9.5 inch

ET46

Tire 275/40/18

Thanks any help would be appreciated

Try switching your rear to 265/40/18. The set up you have now should not rub unless some type of mod was done that caused this.
