What's your budget? Are you looking to spend $1,500 with tires or $10,000+ just on the wheels? Wheels are more of a personal preference so you're really just going to have to see what you like.
I've bought a couple of sets of wheels from CarID (they're a forum sponsor) and have been happy with their service. They also show wheels that are guaranteed to fit what you have.

You're not going to find one for an E350. They only make them for the E63, so you'll have to swap bumpers (front and rear). You'll also have to figure out your exhaust then since the E63 has duals. .
He also has front lips available (I have one from Gary on my E63). Rear diffusers are harder to come by unless you want to gamble on an Ebay one from China. They're still a gamble when buying from US based vendors as well. I'm waiting on my Euroteck diffuser to be made right now. It wasn't cheap at over $600 with shipping. There was a group buy on them last month through VRP but I think that's closed now. He said only 3 were ordered.
Get ready to spend a few thousand if you have to have a lip and diffuser.

IMO I would take a good condition used OEM bumper from a yard over a new aftermarket. If you get really lucky, you might even get one that matches (assuming your car is black or white).That's not to say that there aren't good aftermarket bumpers out there, there are some very good products available in the aftermarket but they're priced accordingly. You definitely get what you pay for, the $399 eBay specials are usually hard plastic or fiberglass and won't hold up the way a good quality urethane bumper will.
A good used bumper will cost the same as a cheaper aftermarket bumper, and even if it needs a little work and painting you may still come out ahead. The cheaper aftermarket bumpers sometimes have blemishes that need to be touched up, the mounting hardware sometimes needs work to get it to fit right, and almost all of them are sold unpainted. If you buy used, though, don't buy anything cracked. Unless it's very cheap it's not usually worth fixing. Scuffs and scratches can be fixed before paint.
Do you currently have parktronic? I think most E63's came with it, so if you don't have parktronic and opt for a used bumper you'll have to either pick up the sensors and leave them disconnected, or have the holes filled before painting. If you go with an aftermarket bumper, you can order them with or without the holes for the parktronic sensors.
Hey guys, I’m trying to buy new wheels and I don’t know what would look nice on my 2009 E350. If you guys could please give me suggestions?
Arguably the best aftermarket wheel brand in the world, HRE, has their FF01 and FF15 models on sale for 20% off until January 3rd. Starting at $500 per wheel there isn't another option out in the market today that comes close to the blend of style & quality that these two models have.
