E36 AMG W210 /// C43 AMG W202
275 x 35 x 18 tyres

Does anyone run 275 x 35 x 18 tyres on the standard 9J Monoblocks on the rear of their E55 and if so, do they encounter any rubbing on the arch, when they have four people in the vehicle (including driver).

I know they are only slightly wider than standard but I just wanted to check.

Regards

Nath

I totally forgot to mention it'd be for a Euro spec car.

Thanks for your help
