20x9 / 20x10 on E320

Problem: E320 + 20x9/20x10 =

Background data: 01' E320, stock suspension.

Missing data (that hopefully you guys could help me with):
Optimum tire size, Optimum offset, Do I need my fenders rolled? and if so.. I live in Houston, do any of you guys know a quality place to take it to?

Any help is appreciated and thanks guys.

20"

I dont think its a good idea going 20. You going to lose a lot of the mb handling..stick to 19...friend of mind has 20 and the ride is rough.

those wheels are too wide. get a 245/30/20 tire and if you want to go staggered get a 275/25/20 for the rear. the only way...... if you don't lower it it will look goofy as hell....

You can do 20" but you should roll all your fenders. I would chose 20x8 and 20x9. 245/35 front and 275/30 rears. Try to get the offsets that are close to a stock 210 E55 31 and 38.
BTW. like mysticblu said, you should lower that thing. I would you Eibach with #2 pads.

You need 25 profile for the rear for sure and it will ride like crap and if you hit a pothole you're assed out. You should go 19. They are just right on the W210.
