Hello,
I'm looking to buy a 2018 C43 wheels and tires.
I saw couple of pics for 245/40/R18, but couldn't find the information for the other tires yet from the seller.
However, The model wheels 661 5-spoke wheels with black accents, what would be the offset values? I want to use them on my 2014 E350 4Matic




Please help with this info. TIA.

Take a look at the "Wheel fitment guide" megathread, 3rd picture or so. It has a table of all OEM fitments. Very useful info regarding anything wheel related.

Thanks, just added that image here for redundancy:

from current stock setup 245/45/17x8.5j (probably) to code 661 above:

front:
Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 27.7mm further away from the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 2.3mm more than before.

rear:
Compared to your existing wheel, this new wheel will have an inner rim which is 1mm closer to the suspension strut. The outer rim will poke out 1mm less than before.


with this setup above, will it hurt the vehicle?

The fitment should be fine. Stancing your vehicle induces more wear on components such as wheel bearings and alters the suspension geometry. I wouldn't worry too much about it though...

Stancing means lowering the car? No, I have luxury model (sport has shorter suspension than Lux model) and I have no plans to lower them further. If I understood correctly on what you mean.

No, it means increasing your track width.
