new wheel guidance?

ok i have a 99 C280 and I am running the AMG Style III sitting nice and low
Currently running
Front 18x8 et30
Rear 18x9 et39

Now the problem - the fronts rub when i hit a bump. So I found a set of Style III 18x7.5 et37

My question is - will these fit correctly and minimize my rubbing issue?
I have already replaced the rears due to a hairline crack in both, but the fronts need to be replaced. I needed some guidance from you guys as you s know alot more about this stuff than me.

I was told by a shop that these would fit as the the max offset should be anywhere from 35-40.

Any and all help is appreciated.
