Tire sizes on stock rims E63 030

I am getting new tires soon and am wondering if anyone has advise on increasing the tire size on the stock rims.

Now stock AMG E63 rims and tires are
Front
8.5J x 18 H2
1.5in offset
245/40-18
Rear
9J x 18
1.54in
265/35-18 XL

For the 030 package I have
Front is the same as above
Rear
9.5J x 18 H2
1.73in offset
265/35-18 XL

Any opinions would be appreciated. I do not want to roll the fender wells and I am not planning on lowering.

Thanks

Well, I won the auction for 4 FK-452 Falkens at the 3/8 meet at TJs in south LA.. The end result is about 50% off, so I might just get 2 sets of rears to burn through.

someone at the meet told me I could go larger on the rears, but I can not remember the recommendation.
