you can use bigger rim if your car isn't sport suspension... or else you need to flare the fender a little bit or just bent the edges.

Well it's a 95 and the suspension is stock right now...does that mean if I install H&R's to close that gap between the tire and fender, i'm going to have to roll my fenders?

I have a '95 E-320 wagon and I was wondering the same. Can I upgrade the rim size to run 16 inchers in lieu of the standard 15 inch size that came stock with it?

I don't want any rubbing and I don't want to damage the car.

Thanks,

aw dude don't even worry about rubbing at 16. It was around 18 or 19 that i was talking about. My 300e currently has 16in. and it feels perfect, no rubbing or damage...
