i drive them all, fast and hard
A quick cellphone snapshot right after delivery.
Flew down to Atlanta on Friday (20SEP) to pick up the car. Then went over to a friend's place so he could put some low tack vinyl on the front for the long drive back that evening/night. Got most of the break in miles out of the way.

Those are some nice pixs. By the way, what year is your wagon? It's most likely a '11 if you're in the States. But the dash and center console says '10. The steering wheel and the shifter say '12+. And how did you get the massage front passenger's chair?

No, the OEM wheels are 19x9 37mm - 255/35 ZR 19 Front and 19x9.5 52mm - 285/30 ZR 19 Rear.
So you could go wider but would have to change the offset some. On my setup I would not want any wider do to the offset and potential rubbing. The tire fills the wheel well perfectly. I was concerned about going with a slightly narrower front and back wheel and tire setup but it rides/drives/looks just fine.
It is very difficult to find a wheel with the same size and offset as the OEM AMGs that come with the car in 20" unless you go custom and it is big $$. I think the increased wheel diameter will cause rubbing on the strut/shocks, etc. so 8.5/245 front and 9.5/255 rear is mostly available on the market or some close variant of that. Heck, it's hard to find the OEM size on 19" 3rd party wheels as well. Again, I was nervous about it but not anymore.
Edit: Wrong size - 9.5/275 rear -

i drive them all, fast and hard
granted potential rubbing issues but thats more than an inch narrower in the rear with almost 600hp...id get as much tire as u can
im pretty sure u can go 295 in rear with 20s lowered and be ok, i believe VIC and others have done so..

Only MBs - the best or nothing
This must be a typo. You must have meant 245/30-20. There's no way 245/40-20 - 27.8" diameter - can fit. I also second others on questioning using 255/30-20 rears on E63.
