Check this thread. https://mbworld.org/forums/s-class-w220/177746-sunday-am-wash.html

The pic shows 20" with 245/35 x 20 Kumho ECSTA SPT Z Rated Tires. I've driven this set up about 5000 miles and am pleased with it so far.

Welcome to the forum...there is a ton of info here that you will find valuable.
