I'm not an expert with wheels, but commonsense tells me to stay with OEM rims/tires.
Using non-OEM rims/tires usually results in deviating too far from the proper offset. A bad idea -- for wheel/fender interference, firstly; but also if spacers are needed it seems to me that they can put significant new pressure and stress on the wheel bearings, halfshaft components, etc... and cause premature failure.
And if you go with a bigger non-OEM tire size, then unless you reduce the sidewall height to maintain the same circumference, your speedo and odometer will be slightly off.
Lastly, larger tires/rims results in more weight -- the last thing these non-AMG chassis' need.
Look for some AMG monoblocks to make your longroof look a little sharper. They're expensive, but OEM. Good luck!
offsets will depend on the size/width of the wheels.
If you find 17s or 18s from a w210 they will fit. Going up in wheel size will change how the car rides but it will look nice.
