Wheel Spacers...

Decided to go with 285/30 tyres at the back for traction issues...With the torgues of mod e55 bigger tyres is a must...I think I am loosing a lots of time in 1/4 with bold 275/30 tyres, eventhough I warm them up...

From what I've read here...285/30 is best combo and even Carlsson reccomneds to use this size...

Therefore I need some spacers for my wheels Carlsson 1/16 UL's...

Rightnow my offset is ET33, since most of time I dont have 5 people in the car, I wanna try ET 33 and see how bad is the rubbing, if still really then I will try ET 35-36 is its still bad then will go ET 38...

I am thinking of going Advan 103 or new Potenza...


The question is:

DO I need to get some special spacers from Carlsson for my wheels or can any spacer that can be used on Mercedes car with 19 wheels ???

Thanks
