Hey Kwik, get a life!! It is a legit question, if you don't have anything to contribute, don't reply! Stupid comments like yours make searching through past threads ineffective, if you feel the need to post *****, take it to the OT!!

'04 Silverado Z71 - sold all my Benzes and need another!
Also ask Whitey. He had 255's on the back of his W210. I know it's not the same but at least you can see how the tire looks on the rim. I would've also offered this size as the largest but didn't know it would fit on the rears as per Luke. Going with 235's on the front and 255's on the rear with 8.5" wheels will give you the illusion of a staggered wheel set up. Good luck and post some pics. if you go foward with it...
