Help with Wheels for W220 S500!
Hi, I am getting some 20" wheels for my 2000 S500 and was wondering what the best offset I should go with. The wheels are 20x8.5 and 20x10. I would want a semi aggressive fitment where the wheel is flush and does not sink into fender. Also, I will be lowering the vehicle so I was curious about tire size. I know that it has to be slightly stretched if I go with aggressive fitment along with lowering the vehicle.
Any help? I would really appreciate it. Thanks guy!

Go with the original ET. When you lower the car the tires will at least be centered in the wheel well.

Play with the offset numbers to see how it centers up for any given tire size. As always, take the answers with a grain of salt.
