I forgot to mention that after I rolled/pull/stretched the fenders i had even more space than I anticipated. Which allowed me to run a 10mm spacer to flush the rear wheels nicely to the fenders.

2007 Mercedes E-350 4-Matic
Advice on tires for 2007 E-350 4-Matic 245/40/R18 vs. 245/45/R18
I need suggestion on tires which I will be replacing on 2007 E-350 4-Matic which currently has Continental ContiPro 245/40/R18
I am thinking of going with 245/45/R18 Michelin X-Ice. This tire is a little taller 40 vs. 45 and I want to raise my car a little bit. Also I am getting a very good deal on these brand new tires which has excellent reviews on snow/ice.
Any suggestion or concerns if I go with 245/45/R18 ; 100 H instead of OEM ?
People talk about strain on 4-Matic transmission and odometer not being accurate if your replacement is not the OEM specifications. Are these things true ?

[QUOTE=The Godfather;6400064]Just to remind the n00bs how a W211 is done properly, sitting on 20" HRE wheels. None of that funky transformers stuff seen on the post above.
