Looking at 22" wheels for my S500. I will probably choose Mandrus Mannheim 22X9 and rear 22X10.5.
Tyre shop recommended 245/30R22 to front and rear 295/25R22.
Those tire sizes should be fine?

I have that Mandrus setup. I'm using 255 in front. Guess that both 245 and 255 will be ok.

Yes, that should should do the trick. I rolled my rear fenders and removed the tabs when I mounted the 22"s.

Tobby do you have a CLS or an S? If it's an S, put your hand up inside the rear wheel well and feel along the seam where the rear quarter meets the rear bumper. It's a tab about 2" long that juts out maybe a half inch or so. On hard bumps that tab can come in contact with the top of the tire.
