1998 BRABUS C 5.8
Pop Quiz.

There seems to be a lot of disagreement with regard to the perfect wheel/tire set up for a 1998 C230 (W202). I own a 1998 C230 (W202) and I liked to buy 18” wheels. I do not, however, want to roll any fenders of compromise my tire size to cater to the width of the wheels. Please, please, please recommend the perfect 18” wheel set up for a 1998 C230 that will not require rolling the fenders. For example, 18x8’s all around to allow for easy tire rotation, or the 18x8 & 18x9; or 18x8.5 & 18x9.5 combo. Also provide the ideal offsets to accompany your tire/wheel package.

Ya, you're right

Looks like it's 18x8's all around with 225/40/18's!

Thanks Doug.

Question One more thing

1998 C230 with 18x8's all around and wrapped in 225/40/18. Any advice on one offset that will work all the way around?
