w203 / W211 / W219
about spacers, it depends of the ET, but I'm sure that you'll need..I have 9 and 10j 17" on my w203, and I think is deep dish that makes the wheels look good on 17"..
again: this is just my opinion
it would look lot better if you go to 8,5 at front and go to 9,5/10 at rear..

Long as it sits flush with the body I think it'll be ok. You can always order new outer lips to make it wider later. As for offset, +38 is the highest I'd recommended. without rolling the fenders lowest I'd go is +28 front and +30 rear but that depends on width of the wheel. If you stick with 7.5 and 8.5 you can go lower on the offset.

sorry for my honesty, but imo it will look bad on your car..

No i apreciate your honesty wanna do this right no flaws for the first mod will possibly have to go to 18's to get the width your talkin about
