19" staggered Verde axis wheels for E55 AMG, Anyone know what offset needed?
I'm looking for a staggered set of 19" verde axis wheels in graphite. I know the photo is of 20" its just for illustration.
19x8.5 front 19x9.5 rear
Tire sizes most likely 245 35 19 front - 275 30 19 rear
What offset should I ask for to clear the AMG brakes and have a good flush fitment?
Does anyone recommend a seller on here?

I have 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 rear, but not Verde Axis wheels. ET25 front, 28 rear. Tires are 245/35/19 front 275/30/19 rear. Perfectly flush for me, not tucked in like the stock wheels. Rears will rub occasionally depending how low you are and the specific tire fitted. You can also do a 10" wide rear wheel with the same offset and same tire. If you search up E55s with CLS55 or SL65 wheels you'll be able to see the fitment. I personally wouldn't go for offsets lower than this, it's already aggressive enough for me, but I'm sure others have done it

No offense, and clearly my opinion.....
This style wheels are played out on the W211. It seems to be the one everyone is going to, especially since Alex at LSC got a pair.
I agree that they look good, I just think they will get dated quick.
You are are one of the OG E55’s with a lot of tasteful, OEM mods on, I just think something a bit more traditional and period correct would fit better on your car.

The monoblocks can get super heavy.
If we are having a purely design conversation - the mass of the car requires you to be careful with the spoke thickness, as well as the sharpness of the spokes. The car is too updated for the old AMG monos, depending on what you do with size. The CLS rims are okay depending on colors and the car color.

I had them on my E63 in matte black but decided to go back to the stock wheels. I'd be willing to sell for a good price too if you want to come up to the SF Bay Area to get them.
They're dirty as **** in this pic.

A pic showing the tires I took a few minutes ago. I'd also sell the Tire Rack tire rack if you're interested in it too. The wheels/tires only have about 5,000 miles on them. There is some curb rash on the right rear wheel. My g/f just had to have her Starbucks from the one with the most ****ed off drive-thru. It's not too bad though.

I have zero interest in shipping the wheels/tires. I'll just put them back on the car when the current tires wear out or sell them with the car when I eventually get off my *** and do that.

The Niche Misano is similar in design and can be bought from CarID, who is a sponsor here. I originally wanted the Verde Axis, but when I was ready to buy they were a month+ out so I went with the Niche wheels.

I have the same exact one's, the one that alex has is different not these. They look similar.
If you do end up buying them you would need FLUSH MOUNT VALVE STEMS for the front. They will hit your caliper since they mount at the center of the wheel. The rears your fine.

Max, I'm new on here but I did go to performanceplustire.com and ordered the Verde V99 wheels and tires from them, they had the offsets etc. built into the vehicle specs so there was no guessing. I did them on 19s as well.

make sure for the fronts you get flush mount valve stems or else it will hit your front calipers. Most tire shops dont have them i had to order it off ebay.

Thanks for the heads up guys, I contacted the wheel shipper, and of course its already out for delivery but I told them my concerns and said what they sent me should fit the car and have clearance...we'll see when they come in.
