need help with crazy wheel setup

i ordered vossen wheels CV3 for my w221 my only problem is that i ordered all 4 wheels 10.5 20".....the problem is the offset i have no idea what it is so since i have 4 back wheels it might not clear the front caliper so i might need spacers but i need to know the OFFSET does anyone know about this .....and my tires will be stretched as well

my offset now is 46et on 9.5 width rims, + i have 20mm spacers which makes it 26et. It shouldnt rub since you going to put 245s on it. Plus its better to deal with them if you have higher offset that you need, bc u can always correct it with spacers

If you haven't mounted tires yet, why can't you switch them and get the right size?

I wouldn't even attempt running 10.5s all the way around. I have the same wheels and I this the real issue will be clearing the wheel well itself. Definitely if you haven't mounted them (and even if you have) try to return them for the right size. I really enjoy my CV3s so get the right size and you will be pleased.
