Ever see 305s on E55 ??
I know I said I was going to post pics a while ago but been forgetting about it.
305/35/18 Nitto 555r Drag Radial mounted on 18x9.5 CLS wheels
My car is lowered on adjustable links alot and these rub a bit on the outside when the car is in the low setting going over dips. No rub on the inside - which is what I was afraid of. I think that if i was stock height these would not rub.My 19" HREs with 275/35/19 rub more because I didn't go down to a 30 profile and stayed at 35.
I only got one pass in on these as it was a crappy night at Atco. Cut a 1.80 60' and went 11.66 which is so far my best. I know these can do better with a bit more practice and messing with tire pressure

Damnnn! Will they rub when your car squats?
I'm only running 265's but they seemed to hook pretty well. Let us know the results once you get more passes on those bad boys.

come back where
we dont' normally run 305s on the E class. i have not seen anyone else try this since i've been on the forum.
hey Brett !! those were actually before we detailed it.....from when i drove it down to VA Beach couple weeks ago. it was shiny for a while but it just kept raining and raining, all the jersey bugs didnt help last weekend. tires are coming thursday so maybe i'll still make it to Atco for a few runs.
