Will AMG 55 Wheels fit 2001 e320

I apologize in advance if this question has been answered previously by my MB friends. Does any one know if 8Jx18 EH2 ET30 front and 9Jx18 EH2 ET39 rear AMG rims will squeeze under my e320 without fender rolling. It seems like the tire diameter will be will be close to OEM but I wonder about offset and clearance. Thanks much.

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
What year E55?

if w210 model yes and you can stagger sizes with a 275 rear and 235 front
w210 E55 should be
E55: 18 x 8” ET31 front, 18 x 9” ET35 rear.With tires
245/40ZR18 front, 275/35ZR18 rear

So you go
front Tire 1 - 235/40R18 rear Tire 2 - 265/35R18
keeps you within 3 revs per mile of the stock tire rim combo and gives you some wiggle roon up front to avoid clearance issues.
If they are off a W211 model they will fit but you will need different lugs from rad/otis usa
Have fun

The 2003 (W211) E55 takes skinnier tires than the 2002 (W210) E55. That should help a little in terms of not having to roll your fenders.

Always consider, the wheels may fit fine 99% of the time, but if you take a U Turn hard with a car full of people, you may still rub. There's a reason the W210 E55 has rolled fenders.

AMG wheels

I just found a set of 18 inch AMG rims, "real not replica" for $200
Then bought all new tires for them and had them installed.
Big diffrence from the 20 inch wheels that I had, and the pot hole bend headaches all the time. I got lucky a guy took them off his E420, had them stored in his garage for a year. His wife made him sell. They are the perfect size for my car 18 x 8” ET31 front, 18 x 9” ET35 rear and Tire 1 - 235/40R18 rear Tire 2 - 265/35R18. I read the post from Ohlord before I bought them I thank you for the useful information. I think I'm going to sell my Asanti wheels.
