depends on the weather
I have seen some 9" wide wheels on the front of a w211 in the past. They were running a 35mm offset so, 39 wouldn't be that far off. The question is will they clear the brakes ... I will check and post back here ... probably won't be until Monday

Hey Luke, sorry to hijack this thread but I have a similar question. I'm looking at a set of 2pc 20x9.5 Brabus VI's and was wondering if this was okay being as they are same size at all four corners going on an 08 E350 4Matic. Am I right in assuming since the size width is the same at all corners I shouldn't have a problem? If this is indeed the case is a 255/35/20 tire size acceptable? Thanks alot for your help.

Hi Luke

I have a similar situation, I have a 2006 E500 4 matic with airmatic suspension. I am about to purchase a set of AMG Sport Wheels, 18 x 9.5 offset ET 38. I need to make sure that these wheels will fit my car and also need to know correct tire size for these wheels.

I am currently running 17" wheels 245x45x17
which I will dedicate for winter with the winter tires I purchased from you guys. Thank You
