Luke: Tire sizes for 19" Brabus Monoblock VI
Luke,
I have a 2005 SL55 and I just bought a pair of the Brabus Monoblock 2-piece VI rims staggered 8.5 x 19 and 9.5 x 19.
My stock rims are 8.5 x 18 and 9.5 x 18 with 255/40/18 and 285/35/18
I think it is a 30 offset due to the Mercedes manual.
What size tires do I need to go to on the Brabus rims?
I was thinking 255/35/19 and 285/30/19.
Brabus recommends 245 on the front. Do I need to do this?
I don't know the offset of the new rims because I don't have them yet. They are being shipped now.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sherman
