was hard to get real definitive answers on exact offsets and things that we need for our w205's due to the big brakes and clearance etc.
after talking to a few engineer and the help of rim/tire shop that always help me (ATC) we finally got the right fit and tires in.. apparently you cant rely solely on offsets as each rim company has different back plate spacing.
sorry for the dirty pictures. i was excited to share the information as it may help you all and the weather has sucked raining on and off. ill get clean shots soon
(ALSO: my stock staggered 19" AMG factory black rims multispoke rims and pirelli runflat tires are for sale. only about 200 miles on the tires, they are flawless and perfect condition)
here are my specs:
suspension: 1.2" H&R drop front and back (very easy install i have a write up on the forums if you want help with that)
Rims: 20" savini bm-12 rims staggered (20x8.5 and 20x10)
Offsets: Front ET45 Rear ET47 (originally ordered 50mm as they said that they would fit but engineers said we needed 47mm and 50 wouldn't work, i found this odd because most you on the forum have 52 or 55mm ET rears. but the back spacing i guess was the changing factor)
Tires: nitto555 235/35/20 and 275/30/20
(i went with these tires because most shops wont run the 285/25/20. its too thin and "wont support the weight of the car properly". just what i was told so i went a little thicker and couldnt be happier)

That sounds more like a Audi set up...you might be able to fit the 10.5 rears on the back, but I don't think the 9.5 wheels will work up front. Even switching to coilovers, I don't think you will be able to make them work. Just my 02.

to people dropped on springs - how's ride quality on H&Rs?
Any opinions on Carlsson springs?

Here is a list of what I have done
Gloss Black Vinyl wrapped all chrome (rear diffuser, front Splitter, Door Handle Trim, rear trunk trim, Exhaust tips, Chrome in grill)
Gloss Black Vinyl Wrapped Rocker Panel Inserts
Gloss Black Powder Coated Wheels
Tinted Rear Tails (Everyone hates on this saying it "kills" the LED lights, but it does not at all)
Tinted Side Mirror Indicators
There are also a few things done under the hood allowing me to run a 12.6 @110mph Lots more to come
