Is Anyone Running 285/35/18's on a W211 E55 AMG???
I am looking to go wide and have my eyes on a cheap pair of 285/35/18's for my 06' E55 that has stock suspension and stock rims. Does anyone know for a fact that these will fit with out crazy rubbing and whatnot?

Not sure if you're interested, but I'm helping a fellow forum member sell this set:

Just let me know and maybe we can work something out since they need to be shipped. Thanks!

FWIW, 285's are not a specified fitment for 9" rims. They require a 9.5" rim; otherwise the sidewall are pinched in, stressing them in a way they were not designed for. Just because a tire can be mounted on a rim doesn't mean it's right to actually use on that rim.

try mounting the tires on the front rims and see if that solves your map sensor issue. Worked for me but YMMV
