Wheel Expert Advice Needed

Guys I need some advice. Picking up a 2012 or 2013 E63 AMG this Spring or Summer. I want to get my mods figured out prior. Probably buying a white car so thinking of doing black wheels. Will keep the stock wheels for the winter.

I would love to run 20's but I really don't want to run 255/30 front and 285/25 rear. I feel 25 in rear will really do damage because roads where I live are horrible.

Could I run 255/35/20 in front and 285/30/20 in rear? I know this will increase the rolling diameter but that extra sidewall makes me feel better.

Or do I just stick with 19's so I don't have to worry about it? It is a big car that is why I was leaning towards 20's

Thanks in advance for any insight.

i drive them all, fast and hard
if u run that ratio with 20s u may rub if u lower the car, weistec did it with their black car, and steve told me they had to do alot of work to keep it from rubbing...i suppose if u dont lower u will be ok...they used 295 30 20's PSS's

call them and inquire about the details maybe
