8x16 ET34 OK for '95 E420

I found some great wheels in the 8x16, 34 mm offset size. I plan to put 215/55 R16 tires on them.

The stock offset for the car, with 6.5x15 wheels is 44mm (according to woners manual).

My question is - will I be OK going to the new wheels and tire size? Mythought is that with the reduced offet, i might rub.

Thanks,
Troy K.

8" wheels on a W124 chassis causes the tires to stick out too far and rub the fender in the front
