Another Wheel Fitment Question...

Hi guys,

I know there are a million threads about wheel fitment but I can't seem to find one that matches my setup, or the setup I'm after.

My C32 is on H&R springs and I have authentic Brabus Monoblock VI wheels. I believe they are the two-piece version, since they have the bolts running along the entire perimeter of the wheel. They are 18x8.5 in the front and 18x9.5 in the rear, with 225s in the front and 255s in the rear. I unfortunately can't find the offsets for the wheels.

If I roll my fenders, but not pull them, how big should the spacers be so that they are as pushed out as possible without ANY rubbing issues whatsoever?

Thanks in advance guys, any help is appreciated!

without knowing the exact offset of the wheel no one will be able to make a recommendation.

Fronts will need a 10mm hubcentric spacer

Actually all are ET35. Would 10mm be pushing it right to the fender or could I squeeze another 2mm out and get 12mm spacers?
