Offset ET25
Rear
Tire Size 275/30/19

They look like S65 wheels. If they are factory S65 wheels the offset on the front is fine but the rear offset will be 60.

A15mm spacer would take it back to stock for a non S65. I am no expert on spacers but I would guess longer bolts would also be needed.

Also I do NOT need to get the $200/each tpms sensors right? My understanding is my existing sensors will carry over as theyre the bolt on

Sorry for the late reply, been traveling. I replaced the TPMS sensors with my last set of tires about 2 years ago. They were still original and the batteries were failing after 7 years. As I recall they cost about $65 each at Tire America (Discount Tire) with the new tires.
One other point on the TPMS. The units changed over time. The receiver in the 2004 may have used a different frequency than the 2006. Your installer should know or be able to look it up.

many rims use a 30 or 35 offset which will stick out too far

It took some time but i finaly managed to get some rims for my w220 in norway, ended up with used kleemann ts-7. 9x20 front, 10,5x20 rear, 245/35/r20 and 285/25/r20. Very happy with the result, now i just need to lower it about 2cm with links front and rear, and i need to fix some small gutter rash on 2 of the kleemann rims

Getting rims for my s600 and still scratching my head on tires. Rims are 9x20 front and 10.5x20 rear. The manufacture would offset it based on model of car. Tires im looking at are 245/35/20 Front 275/30/20 for rear, or going a little thicker 255/35 front and 285/30 rear. Any recommendations ?
you will need to trim the plastic rear bumper tabs if they rub
