I won in an auction a set of Vossen CV2's. They were taken off a 2010 E-class so they have a different offset than what I need on the 2004 E55. What I bought:

Front: 20 x 8.5 @ 44 offset
Rear: 20 x 10 @ 55 offset

I'm told the proper wheels would be .5" wider, with offsets of 32 and 42, respectively. So I was hoping to just put on some spacers. Two questions...

1. Would 12mm spacers all around be fine?
2. Does the front axel support hub centric?

I heard that the 2004 may need to be flat, without the flange. The rears are hub centric but that the fronts may not.

Thanks in advance!

if you need spacers I may have a 4 H&R 15mm hub centric spacers. they are brand new.
on the front hub the lip is big enough to accomodate a 12mm spacers without a lip. on the rear hub you will need a hub centric spacers.
BTW i also live in the Stafford/ SL area

I'm worried that 15mm maynot clear the calipers, no?
So you're saying I need flat spacers (not hub centric) up front?

Nice to meet you! Yeah, there's a few users in the greater Houston area I see. Cool!

yes flat ones on the front.
if 12mm will clear you calipers them 15mm will also clear because they will be 3mm further out

Does anyone know the ideal size for spacers to push the stock wheels on a 63 out to the fenders?

The front and rear axle require different style spacers in the 12mm size. If you are interested in getting them and I can be of any help feel free to ask. I can supply you with the spacers, the correct length bolts in a bunch of different colors. If you need them, let me know and I can get something right out to you.
