EDIT: I've merged your new topic with this current thread on tyres to keep everything together.

RedLiner.
So these are the correct sizes for our cars with 18" staggered AMG's?

I am going to write it down on a sticky note and keep it around, for when I want to change tires. I actually went with a taller sidewall, trying to improve the ride when I went to these crappy Pilot-Sport A/S's (which didn't work), and to boot I ended up with some rubbing when the wheel is nearing the full-over position on either side.

Now I want to go back to the size that is supposed to be there, to eliminate the rubbing, but I still want a softer-ride. The roads in my neighborhood suck.
