I want to run 19's or possibly 20's on a 2003 C240. I know that 19's will fit, but will 20's fit? What would be the recommended tire size and what would be the best width of the rim. Thanks for your help

If you're gonna run 20"s 245/35/20 all around. While you're at it see if you can fit 21"s in there too!

Are you sure you wanna put 20s? Your car will be as slow as a turtle and I cant imagine how it can turn. Does Texas have pretty bad roads? Umm....I think you should think twice, just my $0.02.

Btw, JamE55 is right, 245/35/20 should be the size to use, but....those are very very expensive tires.

JamE55

It doesn't!

Rotty

The 245/35/20 cant be as bad as the 215/35/18 I am used to on my other car. I want to put either 19's or 20's which ever will fit the best. We already know the C240 is a turtle anyway when it comes to speed. Will the 19 or 20 fit when it comes to turns or will I have to roll the fender on both?
Thanks again

I thought 255/30/20 was the tire to use

Harris

Jon, there is no way that a 255 tire can fit in the front of a C240!

Tezta

ahh okay

JamE55

Actually there is. You'll just be fenderless!:p :p
