18" wheels are too big for a w123, 16x7.5 would be a good max size, imho. lets see some pics of the car with what you have now.
Why do you think the washers (one per side) are not a good solution for adding a few "ET" numbers so to speak? You give yourself another 5-7 and lose perhaps one thread of bolt holding power. I don't see any downside, and neither did my Indie shop owner who's been at it for 30+ years.
