I bought staggered rims for my 2002 E320. Rim sizes are 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear with an offset of 38mm. Can anyone advice if 245/35-19 front and 275/30-19 will fit if I put them on without doing any bodywork to the vehicle? If not, what sizes should I be looking at? I really appreciate your advice. Thank you!

Your overall diameters are fine;the offset sounds about right. That sounds like the same sizes the 55 uses for wheel width.
If it were me, I would just mount them up and see where you are, you only need to do one side and that will tell you. Check the backs for clearance as you mount them (inside particularly) and then rotate a turn left and right while stationary just to be sure.
Not to throw another wrench at you, but do you know what year the wheels came from (or are they aftermarket)? If they're not the 12M ball seats you will need custom lug bolts, if they're aftermarket source some lug bolts from the manufacturer or a reliable tire/wheel shop.

Recommended offset for the w210s is 35mm(front and rear)....275/30/19s are too wide- will definitely rub. The 38 offset would make it even worse....I have 245/35/19s on all 4s with 35mm wheel offset-perfect fit, no rubbing.

Thank you! The wheels are aftermarket, that's why I wasn't sure if it would work. Tried going with the same sizez that the W210 AMG uses.

So the offset wouldn't work with the 275's in the rear and the 245's in the front? What if I go with 235's in the front, and 265's in the rear, will I still have problems as far as rubbing goes, or is the offset (38mm) completly wrong?
My car is a 96' but if the dimensions are the same. I have a 235/40/18 front and 275/35/18 rear setup, and the tire's almost NEVER rub. Unless your haulin some fat chic's in the back seat you should be fine.

If you arent lowering the car-you might get away with your current combos(245/275s)....If you are lowering the car-its going to be really close(then i would suggest going for the F-235, R-265s)...BTW, i have H&R Sports with 1/4 Front Coil cut.

Just wondering...What is your F/R Offset?...Type of Springs??(Stock)
