Will any of these wheels fit properly for me?

Would these fit on my 2005 C240 4MATIC? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...fvi%3D1&_rdc=1

If you would have searched for offsets for the W203, you would have noticed that the offset is too high.

Answer: No

Andy,

Those aren't quite what I'm looking for. Sounds like a good deal though.

I'm looking for either a set of four front wheels for a 2007 C230, the CLK 5 double-spokes from the sport appearance package (again 4 fronts since I can't do staggered) or some other ones that fit my offset from the SLK, CLK's or E.

Anyone seen anything around that I might have missed?

Chris,
To destagger I would go for 4 X MB rear wheels from other models like splinter has & fit 235/45/17 tyres all round. You need offsets from approx 30 to 34 to be absolutely safe all round. I know you are not someone who would tolerate rubbing.

Front wheels mounted on the rear are too set back & look wierd.

ps. splinter runs wider tyres rear but same rim size on all 4. I'm running 235/45/17 all round now on AMG reps & it all works fine with acceptable comfort.

[ChrisBrown]

Gotcha. I was hoping you might chime in on this Glyn.

Any pics of those wheels you're running?

Glyn what are your wheel sizes?

Chris - I have not photographed on the car yet but looks & works fine. My trusty Canon has failed. New one coming. I'm running 8 X 17 ET32 all round - You can safely fit 8.5 as well. I was restricted in wheels I could get. You have better choices. Don't try & run 245 on the front however. The dimple in the standard strut is too small & they will just touch with a Michelin PS2 tyre. I've done a test fit. You would have to run Koni Yellow struts up front with a larger dimple to fit a 245 & then it's tight. 235 is max you can safely run on the front with OE struts at this offset.

This is the wheel style I've fitted in Hyper silver - wanted the ones without split rim studs but not available:

TSW Bremma Style. I was going to suggest these as well as I think they look the nicest out of a non-staggered setup.

Similar to a Bremma - Actually a direct rip off of the rear alternative AMG C55 pattern split rim.
