If anyones wondering if et 25 and et28 offsets will work

Hey y’all, so I put on a set of 2 piece Amg wheels on with the sizinf
19x8.5 front et25- 245/35/19
19x10 rear et28- 285/30/19
many people said this wouldn’t work but with the help of a few friends from the forums I gave it and boy it definitely looks nice! Here are some pics Incase anyone ever wants to run these sizes. It only rubs slightly going down driveway, but that’s why we have raise mode no rubbing while driving at all, even in s2.
Here are some pics in comfort mode and comfort suspension. I am slightly lowered with star and washers!

trade you your wheels for my CLS wheels? This way you’ll get rid of the minor rubbing!

maybe it’s the angle of the third picture, it doesn’t stick out to much in person.

Mine are the original silver color on my black car, not sure if it'll be too much black if I redo them in gloss black. I also have a set of the 2 piece wheels that need refinishing

Those 2 piece wheels look nice on your E55, I wouldn't change a thing about them.

Tire size

So with et25 & et28 offsets, is it safe to run 255/35/19 fronts & 295/30/19 rears on CLS55 19” wheels without rubbing?


currently I have 245/35 fronts and 285/30 backs, my car is stock height with rolled rear fenders but on ABC S2 mode and speeding over some prominent bumps/mounds can get a quick rear scrape sometimes.

Planning on ordering new tires and really want to see if 255 & 295 be better for looks and performance but without major rubs.

I'm running 245 and 275 and the rear rubs over big dips in the road. Front is good so far. But my fenders aren't rolled and I'm lowered. I don't drive in S2, it's for shows only haha. If you're stock height you might be able to get away with 285 on certain tires, maybe A/S 3's. Definitely not RS3's or any of the tires with square shoulders. I've heard of people wrecking the front fenders with aggressive offset wheels like these, so I don't want to jump up to 255 fronts
