alloy wheel size query 8j x 17

Hi,

i've checked the search but no one seems to have commented on

8j x 17 ET45 (winter wheels use)

anyone know if these would look normal (i mean not stick out too much etc) and/or cause any issues with the caliphers? i gather from the other threads that the AMG sports pack version of the W204 may have a problem with larger caliphers being used?

i've checked the MB accessory list and there arent any 8J x 17" listed. this is what is making me think...

thanks in advanced and apologies if there is an easy to this. just learning about alloy size stuff, never needed winter tyres before!
