I'm interested in a set of rims which are 9" wide in the front and 10" in the back. the tires which it comes mounted and balanced on are 245/35/20 in the front and 275/30/20 in the rear.

Can anyone share some knowledge as to whether I will have problems with the tires rubbing or if I should be ok? And would the ride quality still be fairly good? I realize it won't be the same as 16" wheels, but I still need to ask. Thanks for your help.

for what reason?

If the total width and diameter of the tires on the wheel are not larger than the sizes of the ones on the S55 your should not have a problem. The increase in wheel size has to be countered by a reduction in tire size to a size of tire that does not excess the max width/diameter. The major brands Brabus, Kleenman usually have taken that into account. Be sure of what wheel/tire combos will fit your car before purchasing. If your sizes are not exceeded, it should be physically impossible for the wheels to rub (if the cars suspension is working in spec). If the tire/wheel combo width/diameter is not larger that the 16 width/diameter you should not have a problem at all. For those having a problem with tires rubbing post your tire sizes.

Not a problem for fitting.....
S-Class can fit up to 21's(even though they look real ugly)
Just make sure u got the right offset, For the front should be around 35~37, the rear should be around 38~45.

By the way I have a set of 20' chrome Brabus Monoblock V and 20' chrome Lowenhart LD-1 for sell.
20x9.5 for Brabus, 20x9, 20x9.5 for the Lowenhart.
Let me know.........
