19" Wheel fitment

Hey guys,

Will the following fit my 02 E55?
19 x 8.5 fronts with 35 et offsets
19 x 9.5 rears with 35 et offsets

These are 19" AMG E63 wheels

I will be purchasing them today. Also, what size tires should I go with if these rims work out?

They fit perect. check out http://www.cardomain.com/ride/3051115 for pics of the height and fit.

Any reason you went with narrow tires in the back and wider in front?

Also, the seller mentioned that I might need to purchase spacers 5mm for rear and 10mm for front. Is this correct?

I actually bought w211 wheels as well, haven't mounted them though.

You will need different lug bolts as the w211 wheels uses 14mm radius ball seat, 14mm diam. bolt and 25mm threaded shank. Ours uses 12mm radius ball seat, 12 mm diam. bolt and 36mm threaded shank.

I just ordered my hybrid bolts through otisincla.com

19 x 8.5 fronts with 35 et offsets

will fit perfectly on my 02 E55.

Only additional purchase are the bolts and the size is:
RAD Lug Bolt 14mmx1.5, 25mm Shank, R12 Ball Seat, 17mm Hex, Dacromet Coated
