Hi,
I have standard 5 spoke 18" alloys on my E250 cabrio and hoped to change to a nicer style (in my opinion).
Tyres at the moment are standard I think at 255/25 & 235/40 on 8/8.5 staggered rims.
I have seen some used ones I like which are 255/45 & 235/50, would the increased diameter (about 24mm) pose any real issues for the car please?

For some reason the car has "sport" suspension but is a non sport standard bhp engine, and I feel the ride is fine on good roads but harsh at times elsewhere, would the increased tyre profile help this does anyone think?
