Question about new wheels in 21" and wheel hub diameter

Hi!
As a new owner of an R350 (and first post here) since a few weeks back I have a question. I am looking at a set of 21" aftermarket wheels thats for sale close to me here in Sweden. They are basically brand new and the guy has had them on a GLE 350. With ET45 and hub 66.4 (on wheels). From what I can see the GLE has 66.5 hubs and the R350 has 66.6 hubs. Since It's a trip on about 300km to go get the wheels... will they fit on my car? I'm not That worried about the ET (or should I be?) ... the hub is more of my question here. Any thoughts?

The rims in this case is high gloss AEZ Panama together with basically new Continental Cross Contact 265/40/21.
/J.

MB uses 66.56 hubs, so it should be same. Wheel width with ET is more important to match as the wheel+tire can hit to the struts, fender and may not clear your brake calipers. You can check with below calculators:

Just an update about the fit. Was basically 10/10. Now I need lowering.

Question: What do you use as Snow/Winter tires and rims?
