295's do fit!
had my local Discount Tire mount and balance the 295's i bought. Got both tires, shipped for $130. LOVE EBAY!
the tire guy was hesitant and kept insisting they would not fit, i said, just do it! they got me quite annoyed and i almost left, but they finally said ok. get it back and they are all done, looks amazing! this is how it shoulda look from the factory! i'll try and get pics up later.
so, 9.5" wheel and a 295 works. Just to set the record straight!

sorry, yes, its a 295/35/18
fills in the well quite well and looks awesome! sticks out a lil, but im ok with that, adds to the muscle car/sedan look. Fronts remain at stock size, 245/40/18, you can't change the front due to the spindle. ****ty design on AMG's part, but i'll deal with it...

also, i have different tires front and back. doesn't make a difference to me. the fronts still got decent tread left, so why swap them out...
