I'm looking at aftermarket, but getting some conflicting info regarding offsets... My local dealer can't even tell me.

I'm looking at a Lorenzo W19 in 20x9.5

I've talked to a few wheel dealers, and I'm hearing some tell me they cna't get the right off-set and some telling me they can. Anyone have 20's with the right offset they can share with me, or let me know what the magic number is?

I think stock is 18x8 with a 53mm offset. That's for GL 450 and 320

Not sure about the 19s or the GL550 wheels.

Foe the GL:
Carlsson is showing 48mm offset for 9.5x20 1/11BE wheel. 10" wide showing
48 offset. MB website is showing 56 offset for 8.5/18 or 19 wheel.

It's all in the GL accessories catalog

8X18 ET53
8.5X19 ET 56
8.5X20 ET 56

SURELY you don't believe "lorenzo" makes wheels specifically for the GL?

Better look to the likes of Brabus, Carlson, etc. for that.
