Looking for images of 22mm offset on our SLs

Hi Everyone
Looking for images of 22mm offset on our SLs
Brabus has wheels at 19mm offset that they claim will fit.
Looking for an aggressive set up.
Have found wheels I like with a 22mm offset.
Trying to see what it might look like.
Thanks

How wide are the wheels? It makes a big difference in how they sit.

Looking at 19 x 9.5 and 19 x 10.5 22mm offset.

I know many years ago Ronnie Renaldi built an SL like this.
His wheels were 20 x 10 and 20 x 11 - however not sure of his offset.

The 19mm would be more aggressive than the 22mm. The lower the number the more the wheel pushes out to the fender's edge. My buddy has 10mm spacers on his 19x8.5 BBS wheel w/ 30mm stock offset, making his set up 20mm. The wheels/tires are right on the fender and do rub a little on full deflection.

SL63, GTR
I had 20x11.5 ET30 (same as a 10.5" 17ET) on my SL65 and a 20x11 ET25 on an SL55 (same as 10.5" 19ET). I'll dig up some pictures if you're interested.
