Are these crazy offsets

Hi gang, need some thoughts:

Looking at 19 inchers, I'm finding most fitments are as follows:
Front, 8.5 width, offsets between 35-45
Rear, 9.5 width, offsets between 40-50

Spoke to a gentleman today at www.bekkers.com about some 19 inch AMG replicas with offsets of 30 up front and 35 in back and he ASSURES me these will fit just fine on the C63...he says the rear offsets are so low due to the concave shape of the wheel. Here is a link to the wheels I'm looking at:

http://www.bekkers.com/Merchant2/mer...=EUROS22119x85

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Again, these offsets just seem way out of line from the ranges I've come across in my hours of searching the past few days.

Thanks for any advice...

You’re pushing it at ET45 on a 9.5” rim in the rear so I’d say no, they won’t fit. Up front I’d probably go no lower than an ET40 on 8.5”.

Yea it seemed to be just way off of a recommendation. I just placed an order for some Stance SC-6 wheels in the following specs:

19 x 8.5, 40mm
19 x 9.5, 48mm

These measurements, according to www.willtheyfit.com, seem to keep the new wheels almost exactly the same distance from the strut while producing an overall poke of about 12mm to fill out the wheel wells. Say plenty of members who run 19x8.5, 35mm with a 245 tire up front with no problems, so I can always add a spacer if need be.

you can do et35 in the front on an 8.5 easy. I have 37 now and I wish it was at least 35 plenty of room not even close to rubbing
