Wheel fitment help

Hey Guys-

Need some help, I found a set of 19 inch CLS wheels. Will this fit our cars? Im running euro springs with 17mm pad in front and 9mm in the rear? The wheels are 19's 8.5F and 9.5R.

Im trying to find out tire specs.

Thanks!

Thanks, the front shock area seems to be the biggest concern, but I think if I run a 225/35 tire I might be good. If anyone else has experience pleas let me know.

Ive decided to pass on the 19's, after thinking about the los in handling and ride quality. I found these E63 wheels and will pick them up tomorrow. I will post pics when mounted.
