Wheel offset opinions

Hello all,


been looking to upgrade my amg 18” wheels of my E400 RWD to 19”.
I’ve decided what model to get but i am not sure if the front offset will fit. They are Forzza Bosan.

The specs are:

Rear: 275/30 R19 9.5J ET35 - Sure fit

Front: 245/35 R19 8.5J ET25 - will they fit? From online comparisons looks like they would but GPT says it may stick out too much… the current ones are ET48, so it would be a difference of just 23mm, is anyone here running et25’s and could share a couple of pictures?

Thanks in advance for all the replies

23 MM is almost an Inch, I don't believe that will work

Update: I gave up the ideea, the wheels were only Diamond cut in ET25, strange to have colors only on some sizes, and i didn't want to buy black wheels just to respray them.. And besided that they were a less-known brand and flow-formed not forged, and with 35 and 30 sidewalls and romanian roads i would've been constantly in workshops with them for bending and cracking. As I literally couldn't find anything else in my budget that i liked i just impulsively bought 18" summer tires, and will stick with the originals until i up my budget
Aaand i'll get the mr.12volt carplay instead

The one I marked blue...........
That is the best advice you gave yourself, and to why I posted a reply.
Do you want to know how many BBS and AMG rims I have damaged and I am on 18".
I guess my Jakarta roads is still worse than Romania.
