Wheel Help

I have a a E55. I have a chance to buy the rims that look exactly stock but the fronts are 18", 8.5 ET 25. Rears are 18" 9.5 ET 28. Does anyone have experience with these offsets for the 18" rims? Any pictures? I have 275/35 on my rears and 245/40 on the fronts of my stock wheels. Would these sizes be good for the wheels that I might buy?

For stocks wheels with front width of 8.5" the correct offset (ET) is 25 and for the rear at 9.5 the offset is 28.

Yes I know that. What I am asking is maybe for some pics or peoples experience since they stick out further than the stock wheels

Pretty sure you're looking at the 219 CLS500 wheels (with AMG sport pack), they fit fine. Lots of people have had them, if you search there should be lots of pictures. They sit pretty flush so you may have to adjust your height a bit if you're lowered. For reference, they're the same width and offset as the CLS55 wheels; the 55 wheels are an inch bigger. I have the CLS55 wheels (19x8.5 et 25 & 19x9.5 et 28) with 245/35 and 275/30 tires
