2010 E350 19 wheels ideal offset ?

I have a 2010 e350 with stock wheels. I was wanting to go with 19 wheels preferably the new s63 replica wheels or similar. I need help with what offset I should go with. I don't want to wheels to rub and I don't want to lower my cars. It's my daily. Thanks for your help

For what it's worth mine are offset but I actually purchased it that way so I do not know the exact offset #'s.
Since I need them for the Vossen warranty anyway I'll post here as soon as I measure them.
I do know they are 20"s front and back.And I have H&R lowering springs.. So you can fit 20s without any scrubbing, but it is VERY close and you have to choose the tire size very carefully.

I'm really wanting to know about 19 as I've had 20's in the past and they weren't to happy with pot holes and over all ride quality. I need 19's that will not rub and won't sit too far inside the wheel wells.

'11 e550 4matic
i'm looking to put 20s on my 2011 e550 4matic and i've read that i should probably stay away from a staggered set-up. do you guys mind sharing what your set-up was with the 20s, more specifically, the wheel widths and offsets you were able to go with without any rubbing? thanks in advance!

Well to be fair, the title of the thread doesn't specify 19 or 20, so it's somewhat reasonable to allow the question about 20" wheels in a thread about "2010 E350 offset question" without allowing a complete thread-jack from what the OP is asking...

i.e. I'd be curious to know the ideal 19" setup as well in case I decide to go that route, despite having 20x9 et32 on 235/35/20 (26.5" outer diameter) and 20x10.5 et42 on 275/30/20 (26.5" outer diameter) on my 4Matic...

The most important thing with the 4Matic is making sure that your rolling diameter is the SAME for the front and the back. This doesn't mean you cant stagger them but you just have to pay closer attention to your rolling diameters since you have the 4wd model.
Mine is a RWD model so I don't have to worry about that. 20s will certainly fit with stock suspension. Things get tight when you lower it though. Everything on my car clears but just BARELY.

I can't answer your question specifically.. But I do know that the Vossen sales rep I talked to was very knowledgeable and knew exactly what offsets would fit my car right off the top of his head. My point being that you can definitely call and talk to any reputable Rim shop and most likely get the info you need if no one here can answer.

Thank you for your help. I'm surprised that no one with 19's on their e350 can answer this!
