rear wheels need spacers or adapters for 22" ashanti
i have a 2001 s500 non AMG. i bought some 22in ashanti from ebay...i know i know before the negative comments start. the front wheels fit fine with shorter stud bolts. now the rear is a problem. i cant even get them near the point of bolting them up. so i looked at measurements from my hub where studs go to the distant to pass the caliber. and its 1 1/4in almost. now thats a lot i figure since the rear wheels have no backspace at all. i dont know the et cause i cant find it on teh rear wheels at all. i keep being told that all i need is a 20mm spacer and i should be good to go in rear... 
i did see some 1.25in adapeters that are non hub centric..for 69pair. will that be my only option for these wheels, cause i do like them. any help is needed. thanks. my email is bigwhipz@gmail.com
oh and this part, if the rims where able to bolt up they would be under the car like they being tucked.

H&r makes 20mm spacers that are hub centric . The DR series
They also have DRA series which bolt onto the car then have new studs for putting the wheels on , like an American car so you would use lug nuts instead of lug bolts . They are 25mm and wider .
eBay China made spacers have been known to break
