How do I fit these e63 style 18 inch wheels?
I bought a set of 18 inch e63 style wheels. They cost me $350. They have pretty good tread on the tires, more than 60%.
The rear wheels are 9.5 inches with a 35mm offset.
The front ones are 8.5 inches with a 44mm offset.
The wheels came with a set of spacers, a pair of 9mm spacers and a pair of 14mm spacers.
The rears look like they sit well without any spacers.
The fronts look like they need spacers. I put on the spacers but the standard bolts are too short.
How do I make them work. What length bolt and which spacers should I use?

You can probably use the 14's or the 9's in the front depending on the stance you want. Stock stance is 30' front and 39 rear'
As for the bolt 14x1.5 should work.

I don't want to drift off of your topic but I am looking for new wheels on my w211 500. Sounds like you got an awesome deal.. any pointers?

Yes they're reps. I'm gonna put them on properly soon.
I got them used so I guess you just have to get lucky. The guy lives in an apartment and needed them gone. His eBay ad was also vaguely named so maybe people didn't see it. I won the auction and picked them up the next day. Just look around and hope you'll find a great deal.
