19" wheel stock back space?

Can anyone tell me the stock wheel back space for the 19" AMG wheels. I'm looking at a set of aftermarket wheels and don't want to screw it up. I realize that if I go with the std. width I can use less back space to move the tire/wheel out some. has anyone here installed some aftermarket wheels?

I believe the front offset is +35.5 and the rear is +47.5. I added Rohanna wheels with+25 and +33 offset which bought the tires flush with the fender. No rubbing, perfect fitment.

Those are 19's in stock sizes with more aggressive offsets. About 4 pounds slighter than stock at each corner. The car actually rides better....although it rode pretty damn well before. Wheels are beautiful......look much better in person.
