How wide are the rims, since the diameter does really do much for determing offsets. On a 17x8, your probably looking at an ET in the mid-30's

500e has bigger brakesx than a stardard w124.

The stock wheels are 16x8 offset of 34mm.

you should check out www.500e.com all the guys over there will know for sure what to tell you regarding wheels and tires for the 500e.
