What is the stock wheel offset on a 5 hole E430 non sport wheel?(17x7.5) What other OEM model wheels will directly bolt on without having to deal with longer or shorter studs, different hub size, etc.? I am ONLY interested in 17" as I have brand new tires. (235/45/17)
JMHO, but why so limit yourself over $60 (the cost of custom lug bolts that will expand your search to all of the nice 211 wheels). That said you should be able to use any of the stock 210 wheels, the sport ones are okay to my eyes. However, depending upon which lug bolts you have, some of the wheels have a narrower casting face so your stock lugs may stick out and be very visible. You don't really need to worry about offset, any 17" OEM 210 wheel will fit fine on your car (and so will the 211s while we're at it). If you drift over to other chassis, your lug bolts likely won't work and then you also have to be concerned with offset.
Take care and enjoy the ride,
Greg

I would do W211 wheels for the extra $60 for bolts as long as they are 17"
