Thank you, Wichipong. My main concern is the offset (et11). If the wheels will fit without stickin' out and without using spacers, then I will go for it. I have currently an 18" aftermarket wheels with low profile tires. And I don't like the ride at all. That is why I am going back to the original 16" wheels.

Thanks Jovsky...I just found out that if I put those Lorinsers and go with the original 205/55 R16 tires, they will stickout about an inch. Not sure if i wanted to do that.

I suggest that you buy the OEM 16" wheels that came with the W202 C230 Kompressor, similar to the pics in my signature. The 16" are the ones in the Blue W124. Those came from my silver W202 C230K which I upgraded to 17" later on.

With the OEM 16", you do not need to put any spacers since it came from the factory specifications. There are a lot of these wheels for sale at Craigslist and are very cheap.
