I'm riding 17s mb alpina, wish i had bought the 18s instead. 17s look to small personally.

Do you think a 9" rim would fit? I don't want to stretch my tires but would like some extra meat on the road.

I'm running 9's in the back and there is no rubbing issues providing you get the right offset. 18X8 with a 1.25" lip up front and 18X9 with a 2.5" lip at the rears. Both front and rear offset of + 38. Just ordered some H & R Springs for the car with a 1" drop all around, which should give a a slight negative camber. The car should sit nice once the Spring are installed.
