Winter Wheels (Need assistance ASAP)

Guys there's a deal that i don't want to miss out on. Here they are. http://www.sonictuning.com/wheels/me...gered-709.html Please let me know if the offset of these wheels will work with our cars. I was told it would be aggressive but still okay with a 235 or 245 width tire.

Offset
18x8.5 +32mm 18x9.5 +35

I'd say no go for 2 reasons:

1) The rear offset is too aggressive at +35, they will stick out.
2) I wouldn't stretch a 235 or 245 on a 9.5 for winter driving... the narrower tires/wheels the better.

You can make it work, but not the most optimal solution for traction in the snow.

You're welcomed! Why dont you buy Merc63 OEM wheels at 700$+ greyhound shipping.. and put snows on them?

I see your thread on these. It's too bad they wouldn't fit on W212 E63 or else I might really be be considering them for winter tires.
