Question Axis Supermesh on C32?

Anyone have the Axis Supermesh on a C32 or does anyone know if the Axis Supermesh will fit a C32 without rubbing? Also, will they will clear the AMG brakes? The wheels are 19x8.5 front (35mm offset) & 19x9.5 rear (35mm offset).
Here's the website: http://axiswheels.com/supermesh.html
Thanks in advance.

Nice-looking wheels. Do you know what they weigh?

Will not fit..

For those of you interested, I was down at Axis Wheels today and we test fitted the Milano's and the Super Mesh's. They DO NOT clear the big brake calipers on the 2004.5 C230 (and 320) Sport Sedans, I'm assuming this would translate into them not working on a C32, as well.

Bummer, because they are both beautiful wheels at reasonable prices.

I spoke with someone from Axis and Precision Installations in NY yesterday and they told me it wouldn't fit. Wonder if we could use spacers to clear the brakes.
I agree, both are nice wheels priced reasonably.

Too much spacing needed..

We tried that. The wheels would need like 15mm of spacing and then the wheel sticks way out and looks stupid.
