W211 - 2003
Let's play another round of "Will It Fit?"

I'm not sure if I'm just making this wheel situation entirely too complicated or it's legitimately baffling. I've searched all over this forum and others to no avail.

Can anyone confirm if a set below would clear a w211?
18x8.5 +35
18x9.5 +35

There are currently tires mounted on them (albeit winters, so would be changed)
225/45/18 fronts and 255/40/18 rear.

Honestly, I've been looking this stuff up for ages now, and even the dumbest folks I know have been able to swap rims without issue. Is there something simple that I'm missing or is Mercedes just specifically picky on offsets / fitment issues?

Because they don't drive these cars and I am convinced that I'm over-thinking the whole thing. But thanks anyhow I suppose...

I mean, if you look though my post history... I've got nothing but positive and helpful comments trying to help other people, but I guess I can't expect reciprocity. I really do appreciate people at least replying though so I know my question was being read.
