Anyone tried a 20×9 et30 front?

With a 245/18r20 front that runs really narrow and is stretched? (Pirelli pzero nero gt). Lowered a bit, not slammed.

I ran 19x9 +30 before. 245/35R19 Michelin PSS. Fit perfect.

Only MBs - the best or nothing
Finger crossing won't help - 245/40-20 will not fit.

Nice catch. That was a typo. They are 245/30r20 from my prior set and 285/25r20 rears. Fronts run narrow and look stretched slightly on a 20x9 (at least they did on the niche misanos I ran last summer).

Im essentially running19x9 et32 so 2mm will not cause any problems. 245/30/20 will work, it is only .2 inches greater in diameter than 285/25/20. Do you want to switch from 285/25 to 245/30 for more tread ? Because if you are, both tires have pretty much the same rubber. 245/30 has 2.9" of rubber where 285/25 has 2.8".

I HATE when folks post on here something will not fit and have no first hand experience. They WILL fit, with ease.

I'm running 19x10 fronts on my W212. 11" rears.

Do you have any pics of your current or previous set up?

I have 20x9" ET38 265/30R20 fronts for sale from my E63. I know they work once lowered. I have someone with an E400 interested in them and is concerned with fit with is lowered set up. He's currently running 20x9" ET32 with 245/35R20 which is more aggressive and taller tire. I'm pretty certain they will fit, just not sure.

Any help would be appreciated.

Responding so I get replies of the photo fitting 10 width on fronts! What's the offset?
