Wheel/Tire Size and Offset Recommendation?

I’m a late bloomer. I bought my CPO 2007 E63 AMG 9 years and kept it butt stock until last week lol.

My friend had it star lowered. In sport II it’s -37mm (1.45”) rear and -39mm (1.53”) front

I want to upgrade to a 19” or 20” staggered wheel/tire but I don’t want any rubbing.

I’ve done a ton of research on this site but can any of you recommend a wheel/tire and offset combo that will not rub with my lowered height?

Star lowered.

20x9 +32 / 20x10.5 +38 was a set up we did on a 08 E63, although I don't think he was lowered. Maybe someone can chime in and compare their set ups.

Thanks! It’s always garaged, foam bathed and ceramic coated.

I have done tons of research on this and several sets, I just ordered 19x8.5 Fronts (28ET) and 19x10 Rear (36ET) 5x112 with the 66.56 centerbore. Tires are 245/35/19 and 275/30/19, I could have gone to a 285 rear but don't want to potentially have issues.

Nice and congrats! I’m curious, why would you go for a 28mm offset in the front? I would assume a higher offset would decrease the likelihood of the outside of the tire rubbing on the fender?

My E63 I had done a set of 19x8.5 35mm front and 19x9.5 35mm rear with the same tires. I loved the setup but the front ended not flush enough for my liking. The 28mm should flush it up.

That looks like Designo Graphite, same as my last E63. I love this color.
