hi:
I have a W210 2000 E320. I am seriously thinking of change the wheels and tires to the following specs:

Front: AMG Monoblock 17x7.5 with 235/45/17
Rear: AMG Monoblock 17x8.5 with 255/40/17

Now does this rub or does it affect how the car perform in anyways (in term of the accuracy of speedometer, GPS...etc)? Also, Do I need to change the spring or any other parts to accomendate this combination? Thanks!

Luke, how come the tirerack website specifies 255/40-17 as the alternate tire size? Seem that your size of 265 is better, providing it will fit the 8.5 in wide rear wheel.
