    Will these fit?

    Front wheels: OEM part number 129 401 0102, offset 31, 8.0JX18, tire (245/40ZR18)
    Rear wheels: OEM part number 210 401 0202, offset 35, 9.0JX18, tire (275/35ZR18)

    Obvisouly I will be changing the tires. I currently have 18x8.5 with 225/40/18s.

    Yes they will fit. From an W210 E55 right? Tires will need to be 225/40 up front and 255/35 out back. They didn't rub on my C36 but I can't speak for the C280.

    You should be fine. But in the meantime if you're gonna be running 275's in the rear, be a little careful. if you're lowered, you may just have rubbing issues on the outer fender.

    Those are the typical setup for those with Monoblocks in 18. Use the calculator tool stickied at the top of this Forum to see the difference in changing sizes and offsets.

    From your initial post it sounded like you had a line on a set.

    Check Craigslist or Ebay. That setup is perfect for W202 IMO Shouldnt have any clearance issues.
    My setup is F:18x8.5 215/35, R:18x9.5 215/40.

    I used to run those 18" AMG monoblocks as well. I had 245/40/18's front and 285/35/18 rear and my car was dropped pretty nice. had rubbing issues, but were taken care of with some rolling and flaring!

    surpisingly today I did some brake bleeding and i noticed my front fenders were pretty flat/rolled.. I hope it wasnt my current wheel setup that did that lol cause the tires dont show any rubbing marks (i know what they look like haha, my GTI used to rub like crazy)
