-They might stick out a bit...
We have the AMGs on ours

Thank you both for your speedy replies

Yes the sticky out bit is worrying, this dealer only has this size (its an AMG Replica) at a very good price Comparatively speaking

I fitted 18x8'' on my B170 et42 and the rears look fine, the fronts do stick out a bit more than I would like..... but still think they look better than the stock 7x17'' et49 mine came with originally.
Here's a pic to for reference (tyres are 215/40/18)

As long as the arch covers them, they wll be fine. If not, it should fail the mot.
