Wheel offset

What would the offset need to be in order to run 285's, or 305's in the back?

Thank you
Peter

Yeah, my 285's are rubbing on my aftermarket rims. I need to get new rims anyway, but don't want to run into the same problem, so i just need the offset of the factory AMG 20's. Everywhere i look, it has a guestimate, but i'd like to know exactly what it is.

Is the vehicle in question your 2013 s550 AMG???

Edit.........doesn't matter I guess because if you have aftermarket wheels now and you're wanting to go with AMG 20's then I see your problem

Yes, the vehicle in questions in my 2013 S550 sport package.

No, i had stock AMG 20's (the 5 stars) on it before. Rim cracked, was forced to put on the rims i have on it now, which came off my CLS63. However, when i put 285's on it, they rub.

Do you still have any of the OEM 20's available because mine gives the size and offset on the back of the spoke(s).
