I am actually curious about the same thing, been debating about getting 20's or keeping the stock 18's, i dont want to touch the suspension either.

20" Asanti's custom fit for the wheel wells. Stock suspension. No rubbing. Not even close. I do keep the car in Sport mode 2 (2" high Airmatic raise) so that may help a bit with the clearance.
 Frankly I wouldn't get them if I had to change the suspension since I believe it cancels out chunks of the Benz warranty once modifications are made to the car.

Tires = Hankook VENTUS V12 Rear = 305/25ZR20 $290.00/ea Front = 255/30ZR20 92Y $225.00/ea Discount Tire prices. Go to website, search Hankook and scroll down to comments. They are incredible tires for the money. Bad *** Z's but quiet as a church mouse on the road.

Here's my car sitting on 20inch Roderick Ruleta wheels. Stock suspension, haven't had a rub yet, in any mode. Offset is the key here.

running 20 by 9.5 n 20 by 11.5 in aggressive offset custom made Wheels by DPE super concave...n lowered fully no rub or camber issues....ELM adjusts to factory settings when needed.....with Airmatic no Problems......our cars don't feel the same till you lower this beast........AMG s r a bit lower than non AMG models.....to get the proper sport feel lower the fnnn thing....via ELM only...any tuner...
Have to raise it for Hoist for service .....n if 4 passengers .....which has never happened....
