Default any ideas of low offset alloys

Hi, just fitted my slk55amg 6 pot brakes on my xf and just wanted to see if the standard wheel with 35 offset would still fit. The answer is NO. Catches on the face of the caliper and there must be atleast a gap of 10mm between the face of the disc and the back of the wheel. Anyone else had this issue and what wheels / offset did you use? 18" wheels still clear the calipers in height.
