22" on E55?

Is it possible to fit 10x22" with 255/30-22 tires and ET48 on my E55 -03?


Best regards Kleiv.

They are now sitting on a Audi S8, does Audi have more space than Benz for bigger wheels?

Say you do pull off tis crazy 22" wheels on a performance car. You'll have such thin tires you'll probably have to be replacing every 2,000 miles.

I'm just gonna say it: It will look terrible and your taste is seriously questionable for even considering it, especially those horrible wheels on that Audi you showed.
