Help with wheel fitment for ‘99 E320 Wagon

Hello everybody, I am hoping some of the fine folks here might be able to help me out with wheel fitment for my wagon.

So currently my E320 is sitting on the stock 16x7.5 wheels (41mm offset). I’d really love to upgrade to some 17s, either some AMG monoblocks or the 6 hole sawblade style wheels from the S600. As much as I love the monoblocks, I am partial to the W220 wheels (part number 2204011202) because you don’t see them as often and they were on my dads S Class, so they have some sentimental value to me as well. And they are much cheaper, which is a plus.

The S Class wheels are 17x7.5, but the issue I am running into is the offset. They are 46mm. From the research and digging I did, it seemed like the consensus was that it would be a big hassle to fit these wheels to an E Class. So I kind of gave up on the idea, until this morning when I came across a photo on instagram of a W210 wagon with the sawblade wheels and it reignited my spark! Unfortunately the owner was not tagged so I couldn’t ask them, but I am hoping somebody here could help me out
What is the best way to make these work on the W210 chassis? Is it possible to fit these without having to do anything to the car itself?
Photos from the IG post attached

The 5mm offset should not be a big deal. They will just sit in a little more and I can see it on that wagon you posted above.
I personally would run a 10-15mm spacer which would just require longer bolts.

appreciate your input! I believe the e class uses 12mm bolts and the s class uses 14mm, so looks like I’d need to find 24mm long bolts to run the 10mm. Thanks again

The 12 vs 14 is the head size. Read this article, it gives a lot of information as the w203, w208, and w210 all share he same lug bolt size.

Thanks for sharing! That definitely helps and I was able to get ahold of somebody from Otis Inc about their hybrid bolts
