Spacers will be required. What are the offsets of the wheels in question?

18x8 or 19x8 = +45mm Front

18x9 or 19x9 = +54mm Rear

Probably 10mm front, and 15mm rear spacers for good fitment. This is not definitive, but would make them fit.

I guess the only way is to test mount and see how much I need to make flush. thanks for your help!

E55 AMG
I wish I could get a straight forward answer on what the right offset for our car is. every time I ask this I get a diff answer ranging mid 30s to low 40s.

Personally I would pass on those. Too big a gap and spacers can be problematic.
