I recently picked up a 2012 e550 convertible white with red top/interior with stock 18s. I do not like the rims want to upgrade to 19s. Found these rims on ebay but not sure if they will fit need help. 19x9.5 square et 48 my concern is brake clearance in the front.

I was running 19x8.5 ET37 up front when I had my car and I seem to remember the fitment being pretty tight against the strut, a wider wheel with a lower offset might have problems (more wheel shifted further toward the strut). I think there is a pretty comprehensive thread out there with people listing out fitments, take a look and see if anyone has run anything similar. I can't recall ever seeing anyone run a 9.5 up front, but could be wrong. Brake clearance has a lot to do with the shape of the spokes in addition to the offset of the wheel, so keep that in mind as well.
