Question To owners with Brabus Monoblock V rims

Hi guys I'm Kowalski from the w202 AMG forum.
I know, I know ,I'm in the wrong AMG section.

My question is to owners whos got Brabus monoblock V rims on their C32, C55, CLK55 AMG's with 4 pot AMG calipers.
I have bought the same 4 pots for my C43 AMG, I have those monoblock V rims.
I wanna be sure if my front rims which are 8,5 wide, ET35 will have any clearence issues when I install my new calipers?
Am I going to need any spacers?
Here's a pic of my car and my calipers.
I appreciate the help.

You'll be fine. I just bought brand new 2 piece staggered 18" Vs. Don't know if you remember my old legendary C36 in the 202 crowd. Had 1 piece Vs. Favorite rim of all time

did you have the black C36 without titanium bolts on your rims?
Single piece rims?

Yeah mine are 2 piece rims, 8,5 up front, I hope I don't have to fit any spacers on my car, don't wanna have my rims outside the front fenders.
Sand and gravel will peel off the paint if the rims are poking out.

here you see there's a little space left from the 2 piston calipers on my car.
I hope there's plenty of space left for my new 4 piston calipers
