.... nothing to brag about, it is a previous model....
according to this chart (correct offset at 30mm w/ 18X8)http://www.alloywheelsdirect.net/inf.../mercedes-benz

ET28 should be okay? Maybe just stick out a little.

okay that makes sense, but how can I check to see if I will need to install the hub rings and if so, how would I know what size I will need?

[1] If you don't know the hubring's outer diameter (O.D.), or the hubring's inner diameter (I.D.), or both, leave the hassle to us. Add the first or second hubring from the hubrings list below into your cart and place the order. During the checkout process, you will be given the opportunity to add notes to our team. Please specify the following information: year, make, and model (and sub-model, if applicable) of your car and the O.D. size of the hubrings (if you know it). If you don't know the O.D. size or not sure that the size is correct, please make a note of the make, model and size of wheels to be installed. We will do our best to provide you with correct size of hubrings. Please note, however, that in the event we are unable to find proper size of the hubrings, we reserve the right to cancel the order.

Well i just purchased them today and it turns out they are hub-centric so i wont need the rings, plastic or otherwise... i heard that the offset (2mm off recommendation) should not be a problem as they are 8in, not 8.5, is that correct?
