    Those look similar to the ones on my 700 beemer. I'd go with 255 on the rears and 235 on the front. I got the 20" version though, I calculated that I wouldn't get the car low enough on 22's without sectioning the body or hacking up the suspension.

    ////EDIT: My BMW's got 9,5 and 8,5, I remembered wrong. I got 255/35/20 on the rears and they look boxy.

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

    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

    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

    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.

    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..
