Wheel Fitment Question - HELP Please
Hey Guys/Gals,
Quick question, hoping you can help me out. I have a '16 W212 E63s with OE wheels and OE size tires.
I believe the W212 E63s OE wheels specs are:
Front: 9x19, ET 37, 255/35/19 tire
Rear: 9.5x19, ET 52, 285/30/19 tire
I want to buy a wheel/tire set from a friend. Off a W213 E63s.
I believe the wheel specs are (Part #s A21340128007X36 and A21340129007X36)
Front: 9.5x20, ET 25, 265/35/20 tire
Rear: 10x20, ET 55, 295/30/20 tire
Can I bolt up the W213 set without any issues? Going up to 20s and wider. Front offset is off. My biggest concern is rubbing at high speeds. Looks like the rear might be ok (maybe), but the front offset is an issue. Need spacers in the front to push out (or did I get that wrong)?
Thanks in advance, appreciate your help!

Those fronts are gonna poke a considerable amount.
[edit] To clarify, spacers push wheels out more. They would only make it worse. You want a higher positive offset, which there is no means to achieve short of buying appropriately spec'ed wheels.

Got it, you're right. I just came across willtheyfit.com and it shows the fronts will stick out 18.4mm more. The rears will be about the same as OE, but 9.4mm closer to the suspension on the inside.
So, 18.4mm in the front is about 3/4". Not too bad, but yes, more than OE.
I think it might work, but I'll have to check that clearance in the rear inside and rubbing while turning in the front.
Thanks for the response!
