Wheel fitment c55amg 2004
Hi folks. I'm wanting to purchase another set of aftermarket wheels for my c55 .
this is the size specs
19 inch x 8.5 with 35 off set front
19inch x 9.5 with 35 mm off set rear
tried to fit them but they hit the calipers .
Are spacers the way to go ? and what sizes would I need to clear the brakes . I was warned not to go too big as there's a risk of wheel vibration .. Bit confusing .. As the c55 spec is lower than the offset of the wheels I want .. Cheers any help be great

Wheel spoke design is the biggest hurdle to fit over relatively big brake calipers.
Lower offsets push the wheels out further from the car, higher offsets pull the wheels in.
Im sure there will be a wheel thread on here somewhere to show where the wheels should sit, this is the offest calculator i use:
