    Fitment of some wheels?

    Hey yall

    Any wheel gurus could help me,

    do you think a ET 30mm 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 wheels would fit with 225..35.19 and 265.30.19?

    My current wheels are 40 et with 5mm spacers which makes ET35mm they fit with same size and tire

    im thinking it may be a little to extreme

    Im not 100% sure.. but they may fit.
    My lowenharts are either 32 or 37ET.. its stamped 32 on the wheel.. but the person I bought them off of said they were 37!.. so Im not sure.
    it may be a lil extreme though.
    but didnt speedy benz run 17x9.5's or something et35 and then use 15mm spacers to bring it to et20? so they may fit with an et of 30.

    It would be close. If it's lowered, it probably depends on how much camber you have. More negative camber would pull the wheels in at the top a little more. 5mm is only half a centimeter, so it's not a whole lot, but potentially it will rub more if lowered especially.

    Im on 18x8.5J all around with AMG suspension and I have no problem at all. Tires are 225/40/18 all around too. Offset is 35.

    Also according to mercedes the optimum size on 19s is 235/35/19 tires and W202s can take between (widest) 35-42 (Narrowest) Offsets.
