rim size

I wonder if someone knows if these rims would fit on my 99’ C230 K (W202):
ET25
7J x 15H2
1264002802
34-89

My current rims are:
ET37
6 1/2J x 15H2
2104000202
15 45 98

I don’t know if this helps, my tires are size: 195x65x15
Thank you.

I think they will fit perfectly, anyway...the offset is to small (ET25) so the wheels will go much more inside than you original wheels (you may need spacers to take them a little bit out.

vali982,
thank you for your reply. With all due respect, are you sure it is not the other way around? I spoke to the guys at the tire place that will do the installation and they said the offset difference is 12 mm + 1/2" new, wider rims will add an extra 6 mm on both sides, sticking the wheel 18 mm outside.
If that's the case then I wonder if the front tires will rub off the interior plastic (when turning them) since it would be very close to it (especially if there is a layer of snow on the tire).
Now I am confused and don't know what is correct...

I think the tirerack.com has some good explanations on their site that might help you out.
