Question w221 (new S-class) wheels on a w211?

Does anyone know if the new S-Class w221 wheels will work on a w211 E350? I'm thinking that the 22 spokes like this might look cool if they will fit.

I think they are 19x8.5 and 19x9.5 but I'm not sure about the offset.

Does not take a lot of effort to read the on-line manual and find that the E-class offset is 30 mm for 18" factory wheels while the W221 is using 43 mm offset.

The bolt pattern is the same and the centre hole, as on all models and the bolts are also 14 mm on both.

So theoretically they should work with 15mm spacers. Anyone tried it? Pics?
