i am going to go with spacers for now to see how that looks . It’s on a 2 year lease so I don’t know if i want to go aftermarket wheels and tires especially when i have tire and wheel protection built into my lease . Roads are not the greatest on Hawaii.
2 years is a veeeery long time to be looking at stock wheels every day. I know from experience as I have a 3-year lease and got tired of looking at the wheels month two and order HRE P107's. Best decision I ever made with the car.
Lowered this on the eBay lowering module. Worked great. Currently sitting at - 39mm Too bad my winter tires are still on with terrible offset. New rims this week!

These rims are really special but for some reason I'd prefer others on this car.
Furthermore I don't like the silver/bronze colors to the blue/black of the car. But the car and rims itself are awesome. Just my opinion.

That set up looks perfect! Are those S63 take offs, or an AMG Replica wheel? I gotta say, that application and spoke design look really good!
Thank you. I wanted to stick with oem wheels, the issue is the E300 requires higher offsets, cancelling out all OEM amg style wheels I was interested in.
The wheels on my car are replica S63 wheels. I bought them from ExtoicWheels, they were the only seller I could find that had these wheels in the correct offset for the E300. If you go on eBay there are sellers who have these wheels posted for sale and say they will fit the E-Class, they are selling wheels with an offset of 35 on a 20x8.5 and 20x9.5 wheel which will fit the E300 but will poke out past the fender.
With a 45 offset, the wheels are flush with the body front and back.

Thanks G3710 for the wheel info. I am still not sure what to put on the car yet, when I turned in the C I pulled the spacers I had on the 19's and put them on the E with the 18's just to fill out the fenders a bit, for those wanting to maybe do the same I am using 12mm front with 15mm rear hub-centric spacers, but the wheel design and pad thickness of this particular wheel is different from the 19" multi spoke, so I had to get different bolts and I am using black 60mm bolts front and rear. It is amazing how much different the car looks with the fenders being filled up.

I ran spacers for the time I had my 18" stock wheels as well, your car looks good. Do you plan to lower it?

Honestly no, I hear the front lower valance scrape in dips and in my driveway from time to time if I am moving the car too fast and it gets a good bounce, and already a tire block barely clears, so I just think lowering it would cause me more headaches than not. I think filling the wheel wells with the right offset and size wheels and tires will provide just the right aggressive stance. I guess I am getting old LOL!!!
That is not to say that the car would look really killer lower, for sure it would, but just from a functional standpoint it would cause me more trouble and paint repairs than it would satisfaction for looking cool!
