2017 C63s Saloon
Hello all,

In the summer I bought my second C63, a C63s Saloon (2017). It came with imitation 20" wheels with Accelera tyres. I have bought some genuine wheels for the car but will fit those in the spring. For winter, I plan to keep the imitation 20" wheels on, but putting some winter tyres on for the colder months.

I have some Michelin Pilot Alpin PA4 tyres on the front in 265/30/20 size (outgoing were 255/30/20) and 295/30/20 on the rear (outgoing were 285/30/20).

The front seem to fit fine without issues, but the rear are now catching the rear fender arch when hitting bumps. I have only done one drive in them but recognise I need to change them asap.

Keeping the fronts at 265/30/20 (which seem fine ...) was thinking either 275/30/20 on the rear or 265/30/20. Both would be smaller than the outgoing Accelera tyre which had no issues, though is it also a problem having 265s on both front and rear?

Thanks for your advice in advance.

Jonny
