this the mock up before the air

225's will be looking good. Rears will be looking killer. I say go with it. Car is looking solid

[flatsix02]

Are you going after tucking? I would go with a 245 on the front and a 265 on the rear.

[evovento]

the plan is tuck as much rim as possable, I realize it will not sit on the frame but I'm going for cheaper CLS500 lip effect

[evovento]

for now fitment is ideal tires are the only issues.

POKE for now

9 inch rim=215(very stretched) 225 max..10.5 inch rim looks best with 245 s or 255 if you want to be a bit more conservative!

thats tough... definitely go with 30 series for the small amount of added clearance at drive height... 245/30 on a 9 isnt going to stretch a ton though..

[BLKonBLK98]

245 on a 9 should be "ok" with a 30 series. if it's the smallest you really don't have a choice anyway but i wouldn't go bigger up front.

i'd go 245/30 f, 255/30 r just to keep it some kind of even.

[evovento]

well tires should be here anytime and i'll get one mounted on each. I've been hunting and c300 fourms and there are few things there.

these are 295-25-22 on 11's

for what reason? warranty?

[Rabbit]

Damn those look huge compared to the stock wheel in the background

[phillygs3]

None of those sizes are gonna give you a stretch in the front , But if thats the sizes you have to choose from I say 245/30 and 255/30

[cheez80]

just keep in mind that as the sidewall profile goes down, the stretch will increase. a lot.

dang tires are taking forever to get here , last checkin was florida , I'm in seattle.
