Hi Guys would you please help me choose a set of tires for my Brabus Monoblocks IV. That’s for my ‘94 E500. Also would I need any spacers and or longer lug nuts? 8.5 R18 ET35
Thanks in advance!

Spacers are optional, and for appearance only. Make sure to use lug bolts with the proper seat. I don't know if Brabus requires cone-seat, or ball-seat. I'm pretty sure these will use standard 40mm shank bolts, but @captruff may be able to confirm.

Either a 245/40 or 255/40 should work. The 245 would be a better fit on the 8.5 wheel unless you want more sidewall to fill out the fenders.
