AMG Monoblock wheel on 08 4MATIC

I've been searching for a few weeks on this wheel setup with no straight answer but I have seen people run this wheel on their c class. Today I went to go fit the wheels and realized my wheel studs are larger in width and shorter in length than the ones on the E class the wheels came off of. I have no problem getting the wheels drilled the tiny amount to fit my size studs, I was just wondering if anyone else has ran into this problem with other factory Mercedes wheels.
The specs on the wheels are:
Front, 18x8 +31
Rear, 18x9 +35
I think I have figured out which sizes of tires to run if the wheels will work without rubbing. I've been through all the wheel and tire fitment threads for the w204 and all over Google but maybe my searching abilities aren't what they use to be.
So my question is, has anyone ran wheels with these specs? And if they won't fit does anyone have any suggestions on a factory wheel to run on my c class? Its time to pull off the winter wheels and replace them with something different. And the broken belt in my sidewall is making me have to find something quickly.

Drilling is not a problem. Mainly trying to figure out if these wheels with them specs will bolt up without rubbing before I buy them. And what studs I would need to use.

Why not just opt for C63 wheels and be done with it? No drilling required, no rubbing, etc. Bolt on.

Finding them in my area without paying over 1k. I found some 18x8 all around with a +35 offset on 215/45/18 tires just waiting for a reply to see if they will work. Far too many loose answers. If I had a full account on this forum I would have gotten rid of this post.
