Going to be turning in my W204 in about 6 months for a W205 and I really do not want to buy new wheels if I do not have to.

Bump Ron, would love to know this too for my wheels.

Down load the app MB Guides, select owners Guide for new W205 C class under tyres it shows wheel sizes. From what I can see the wheels are not interchangeable with W204.

Good call Merlin, downloaded the app.


w205 R19 Configuration
Front 7.5 x 19 ET 44 / 225/40 R19
Rear 8.5 x 19 ET 56.5 / 245/35 R19

w204 C350/300 17" Configuration
Front 7.5 x 17 ET 47 / 225/45 R17
Rear 8.5 x 17 ET 58 / 245/40 R17

So fitment will be very close to w204, however it looks like it will depends where the strut and the fenders are for the car. The fronts look okay, the rears will be a concern.

For example, my Monarch Euro 63RS were
Front 8.5 x 19 ET 42
Rear 9.5 x 19 ET 45

These wheels would net 24mm further out from the rear than stock w205, and 15mm for front front. Front clearance will be 10mm less in the fronts and barely any difference in the back. Versus a stock w204, the fronts stuck out 18mm on these wheels compared to stock, but visual and driving fitment was perfect. For the rears, they stuck out 26mm more from stock, and retained almost perfect strut clearance.

TL : DR: Fitments are almost identical to what I personally used for my wheels on the w204 when compared to the w205's R 19 configuration on Daimler AG's app. The issue without having to try it on a real w205 is the fender and strut clearance since the w204 and the w205 are different cars.

Thanks imboom. I hope someone tries this out soon

pcdsl

has anyone tried this yet?

I changed my wheel to Rays G25 19inch which is for W204
Front 8.5/ET45
Rear 9.5/ET50
No problem at all.

Did anyone ascertain this?
I have the wheels in my dealer from my w204 to put onto my new W205 which has shiny diamond cut 19" AMG rims, and for reasons of not wanting the salt on UK roads, to attack the new rims, I wanted to put my old wheels with nice chunky winters Nokian tyres on.
The dealer has informed me since that theold 204 will not fit, as they catch the calipers.
I think I'm trying to get ET 47 rims to replace ET 44 rims.
Really keen toxins out if anyone has any experience or advice on this, like suitable spacers etc...

My MB-original 17" rims from my W204 fits my new W205 (use them as wintertires).

torvil

Can you post a picture of your 17" rims please?
Do you know if your W205 has sport brakes or the same as AMG line?

My 17 inch snow wheels and tires off my 204 did not clear the caliper on my Sport Package US version 205. It just barely scraped the caliper. Perhaps with a spacer it could've worked but I just sold them.

angeloxnet

i have aftermarket wheels from my w204 to my w205, however the tires are different, they need to changed as they have over a 3% difference

torvil

Ok I have found the solution....
I purchased 15mm spacers, with 15mm extra length bolts & collars to accommodate the AMG 17" alloys from the 204 model. Result is they fit with no catching or rubbing. It has a slightly wider track, but hardly notable. Whether you could go down to 10mm is another question.
Cost was £91 for wheels spacers and bolts from Demon Tweeks, Wrexham.
