Can I get wheels with these specs to fit on my W210?

Wheels:
FRONT: 18" x 8.5" ET44
REAR: 18" x 9.5" ET46

Car:
Basic E320 W210 (no 4Matic or auto-level suspension)

I understand about offsets and I know these offsets and widths are quite a bit different from what is recommended for W210.

With that in mind, I'd like to know:

A) Is it possible to get these wheels to work using H&R spacers?
B) If so, what width spacer?
C) What are the pros/cons of such? (wheels poking out of fenders, etc...)

I'm not worried about bolts or tire sizes yet (one step at a time). Luke, I will definitely order from Tire Rack (I always do). I just want to verify that the wheels will fit before I buy them. If it's not possible to fit them, discussing tires and bolts now would be pointless.

Thanks in advance.

depends on the weather
the offsets are too low ... but, if you want to run spacers you would need a 10mm spacer on each corner

Awesome! Thanks, Luke. I'll order tires and spacers from Tire Rack soon. BTW, do we get some sort of affiliation discount?

Thanks in advance.

W210 E320
Thumbs up

Hey, guys i have been doing some reaserch about the offset you described above cause i have a w210 and ended up purchasing a set of 4 monoblocks from a 2001 S55 AMG thinking they wuld fit on my car. The back ones fitted fine without rubbing but the were pretty close to the strut and the size is 275/40 18. The front ones i was not able to fit cause the would rub on the suspension side. The front ones are 245/45 18. I was thinking to follow your advise above and go with a set of 10mm spacers and then get a set of 235/45 18 or 235/40 18. Please let me know what will work best to avoid rubbing. Thanks for the advise guys.
