C36 AMG 3 Piece Rims Help please

Hi there, forum newbie from New Zealand here - Looking for some help with sizing the lips and barrels for some 18" Lorinser RSK2 3 piece rims.

Have a 1996 C36 AMG running 17" Monoblocks currently, I recently acquired some 18" RSK2 3 Piece rims which I plan to fit to my C36,
However I am struggling with trying to work out Lip and Barrel sizing for these puppies.....

Offset for the RSK2 center pieces is 37 I think (has R91 9018537 on the inner of the centers)
I have some brand new 2.25" and 2.75" Lips ex Felgenfuchs in Germany, and need to grab some barrels as well,

Current lips are well scuffed, and the barrels are massive making rim dia of 10" for the front currently and 11" for the back which obviously wont fit my C36.
Given that the centers are 1/2" thick on mounting face and I would prefer roughly 8" fronts and 9" rears or there about's,
What would be the correct size lips and barrels to suit the C36?
Any help appreciated, I was just going to order some 5.25" and 5.75" inner barrels and suck it and see but would rather get it as close to right first time.

I have already sourced new center caps from Lorinser in Germany - will send the center's away to be re-chromed, just a matter or getting the right sizes lips and barrels if possible?
Surely someone must know what will work with 3 Piece rims for a C36 using RSK2's?
Thanks in advance
