The spacers made it look a whole lot better thus filling up the side gap.

I agree on both points

Some 18 or 19" wheels would go great on your car. What's the specs on those OEM wheels, without including the spacers?

I believe the fronts are 18x8 ET31 and the rears are 18x9 ET35.

I agree with staying with the stockers. I just put mine back on last weekend and now I'm really considering selling my Brabus wheels. I thought I had a bad tire (maybe 3k miles on them) that was causing the vibration but that's not it.
