2003 Mercedes S600 Custom Wheels

Hi Everyone. I am new to the forums. I have just recently bought an 03 Mercedes s600 (V12 Twin Turbo Model). The car is black on black with 78,000 Original Miles. I purchased off the original owner who paid $149,000 and I was able to get copies of all the service records from the dealership since new. The car is pristine without a single door ding. Basically I love the Car. I would like to purchase a set of custom wheels for it. I have yet to decide wether to purchase 1 piece wheels or 3 piece forged. Everyone says to go with 20s. If I do what size in front and what size in rear. can I do 9 in front and 10.5 in rear.? Also what tire sizes would be best?? I dont was the wheel sticking out way past the tire. And lastly,, would 21'sss work?

245 or 255 35 20 front and 275 or 285 30 rear. Its not just the width of the rims, the offset is crucial. I would recommend NOT buying wheels online and only buying from a local shop that will test fit to ensure they do not rub. It may cost more but is 100x better than saving a few bucks and finding out you need to buy spacers and your expensive custom wheels start wobbling.

You can do 21s but the wheel and tire selection is very limited and tires are about 3x the price of 20s which can be found near $120
