What about the fender liner? Just doing a test fit, that's where it looks like it will rub.

If you look at the fender and the very top center is 12:00, I'd say that rolling from 10:00 to 2:00 should get the clearance you need.
I really appreciate your response. No pulling or bulging works for me

With 10.5 wheels, 45 offset, with 285/30 tires I did not need to roll anything. There is a slight bend to the tire, but not much.

+45R 10.5" wide:


Car was sitting crazy high but you get the point... +36F 9" wide" This is a 245/30 tire and more flexed than I care for.

I have 295x30 and 265x35 on my E-55. My next set will be 35 and 40 profile as I much prefer the old style high tire wall look and better ride also. I have temporarily put my SL55 wheels with 285x35 and 255x40 tires on the E and love the look.

Has anyone been on stock height with a 20x10 on 305s with out rolling? I'm waiting for my wheels to be made and I'm trying to decide on 295/30 or 305/30 possibly 305/25.

Tread on 10.5's

Hey there.

New member here yesterday. Look forward being involved in he forum!

I have Toyo T1R 295/30/20 s on mine with no rub. Its snug in sport 2 but, still fine and looks much nicer IMO than the 295/25's I had on for a week. Not into the rubberband look

Thanks for the pics! You got me thinking about going with 255/30/20 in the front now as my wheels are still being made Are you planning on lowering your ride height?

I'm running 305/25/20s in the rear and I had to get my fenders rolled.

Im bringing this thread back to life because you guys all know your stuff and are on track for the look I want.

Im currently looking at a set of 20x9 Front and 20x10.5 Rear. The good thing is they are made to order and I can get any offset I want.

So that being said, I have a stock E63 Wagon and I want to go as aggressive as possible with out messing with lowering or fender rolls.

I don't want rubber band tires so 30 side wall would be best. I want everything to sit slightly past flush because I don't want a tucked look.

I know, I know, tall order but you guys are the group that from what I have read know the most about the look I want.

Soooo pleeeeaaassssseeee help a botha out.
