Will these wheels fit or should I just sell them?

I have a set of the following wheels that I would like to put on my E55, however I am unsure if they will fit even if I do get my fenders rolled.

Wheels: Asanti AF120 20"

Front (Nitto NT555):
245/35/20

Rear (Continental SC3):
305/25/20

Any help guys? I have no clue what the offset is or how I would figure it out or if these will fit. Can I get them on with just some fender rolling at a local shop? (im in Woodland Hills)

I think Juicee is running 305 rears on his CLS and they fit fine. If the fitment is same as E, you shouldn't have a problem

You may want to PM Jangy if he doesn't see this thread

all i can say is when i saw the 305 rears in person
...then came seeing them in action good god what a difference they made! (this is for 55k) the traction gained is unreal and really show you how a 55k pops out of the hole (when it gets traction)
after a set my self now but sadly think 295 is max i can get for my 18 stockers

edit mate had the 19 cls wheels and was told the 305 would not fit (not recomended by dealer) yet he had them done else were and they seem fine

also wouldnt you be better witht the nitto set up at the rear then the front? or are the contis good?

I asked this question awhile back and everyone seemed to say know. They are a different Assanti model but they are the same size. Goodluck and let me know how it works out.

Clearly offset matters. Is it possible? Yes, with fender rolling. 305s under an E55 is a job. I'm about to do it, but it is NOT as easy as slapping them on. You will need EXTENSIVE body roll.
Also, you are trying to run very tall tires (in respect to stock) and that makes it even harder. The fronts would never work. Anytime you are in a turn and hit a bump, the top of the tire will rip into your fender.
I say be very careful. Not knowing the offsets, you could do a test fit. My guess is no way.
