Can I fit a 19x9.5 with 45 offset up front?

Guys,
I'm trying to get four same-sized rims to enable as much rotation of my winter tires as possible once I'm through my current set. The challenge I have is that I've already got staggered tires - 285 in back and 255 up front.
Will at 19.5x9.5" wheel with a 45 offset fit up front? It's the only size wheel that can fit my current winter setup. I know I can't rotate the current tires back to front, but thinking about a future set.

Looney, it totally depends on the face design of the rim. If it has any concavity in the spoke, it will not clear as you lose X factor for caliper clearance. If it's 4 rear AMG wheels, or and straight face design rim, yes it will clear, but you may need to run a 5mm spacer to clear the strut body on the inside part.

So in essence you'd be running a 19x9.5 +40 (including spacer), which is equivalent to a 19x8.5 +28 (which is flush fitment on a W212)

Thanks for the replies on my wheel threads, AHI.

I think I've got my solution. I found a set of matte black rims 19x10 55 offset for the rears and 19x8.5 35 offset for the fronts. Should fit perfectly. I've given up on a full tire rotation.

What wheels did you find? I would be interested at looking at these, if you could post a link?

I'm still awaiting responses from a couple other wheel shops I've contacted, but these are currently the case to beat.

Looney, send me an email. You' not going to like the +55 on that car... Going to look brutal.

I have a solution for you. Allen@simplytire.com

Too late. I paid for the rims yesterday, they say they should be in within two weeks.
Why do you say they will look brutal? Stock offset is 50mm, with an extra half inch of wheel width the new rims should line up almost exactly with the old ones.
