I have the c320 I am ordeding my tires today for the new rims. They are 18x8.5 all around what sizes for the front and back do you reccommend. What sizes are on your cars with no fender rolling or nothing, as we say plug and play, nothing else

depends on the weather
either
225/40-18
or
235/40-18

the 225/40-18 would be the better of the 2

Luke on the back can I put 255/35/18 that would fit the 18x8.5 rim, right?

staggering tires on non-staggered wheels is not a good idea ... the differences in sidewall deflection rates would actually hurt the handling of the car
