9.5Jx19 without spacers and with 285/ 30 / 19 tires
Hello guys,
I bought rear tires (285/30/19) for my car that has aluminum rear brabus wheel with the size 9.5Jx19. The fornt wheel is 8.5Jx19 with (255/35/19 tire). In both front and rear I have spacers.
I can hear the rear tires clearly touching after installing them while driving and the reason is I have spacer already since I got the car.
For the above sizes of the wheels and tires, can I remove the spacers and still be fine? isn't gonna touch somewhere else from inside?

It all depends on the ET of the rims and the size of your spacers. The easiest solution would be to mount the wheels without the spacers and check the clearance.
Your stock ET is 38 mm and that should be no problem with your setup. Each mm less will move the wheel one mm outwards. The witdh of the spacer increases the ET of the rim.

Why don't you just swap out the spacer and put the rim back on? Or do you need to go to a shop to do it instead of yourself?
Put the wheel on, feel around the inside edge of the rim, slowly lower the car off the jack and watch to see I there is interference. Pretty simple.

Unfortunately, I tried to swap spacers, the front won't fit in the rear. I will see what is the next step.
I will see the possibility to get smaller spacer.
Front won't fit in without spacers n so the rear

If you need a different size spacer I stock all the different spacers for the Mercedes so we can get you something that will make your fitment perfect.
Why don't you try the wheels on without the spacers and see how far they go in. When you have the spacer off of the car why don't you measure in millimeter how thick it is and get back to us.
