Hello all,<br>
<br>
Since I'm new here, I want to thank everyone for all the great info so far. I've been lurking for about a month and have learned much in that short span of time. Anyway, on to my first inquiry... <br>
<br>
Here's my situation: I recently purchased a set of used Brabus Monoblock V multipiece rims and tires from a friend I met here via the marketplace. They are staggered, 8.5 and 9.5 by 18'. The tires that are currently mounted are 225-40s and 255-35s, front and rear respectively. <br>
<br>
My question: Will this tire fitment look too small on my '98 E320? Or can I sneak this one by until the tires wear out? I've read that I should be using 235s and 265s with this setup. I've verified these numbers with a calculator (rolling distance better matches my stock tires' diameters).<br>
<br>
Any input on this configuration would be greatly appreciated (i.e. anybody using this current setup)!<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
