Please advise

Hi,
I have a 2014 E350 "sport" sedan and it came equipped with 18" non staggered wheels. My neighbor is selling OEM AMG 5 spoke wheels which I have seen on many vehicles like mine, same MY etc. The question is that the new front wheels are 8.0x18 ET 45, rears, 8.5 x 18 ET 48. Will these fit and not negatively affect the vehicles transmission and on board computers due to a change in wheel spin etc. The MB tech told me this could occur.... I only wish to change the wheels because I love the look of the AMG wheels. Thank you for your help. BTW I'm not even certain that I am posting this correctly..

Welcome. I suggest that you post your question in the section of the forum that's for your specific model of MB. There will be owners of the same model there who'll be more than glad to help you. Just scroll down the main forums page to find the correct section. This section of the forum is for new member introductions and not for answering technical questions. Hope this helps.

Try this website for wheel specs and use a tire size comparison site to see the difference in your size vs the size you are buying. From what I saw the rims are fine, you just need to check the tire sizes, but my guess is you're ok.
