If you got 255/35 on 20s I would strongly suggest you STFF for fitment. Otherwise here are the instructions.
1) Jack up car
2) Remove OEM wheels
3) Put on new wheels with rubber band tires
4) Lower car again
And while you are at it I would suggest you redo your math in regards to odometer and speedometer.
P.S.
Be careful or you will bloody your hands.

What type of wheel is it?
What is the offset?
What is the width of the front and rear tire?
I seen a pre 2001 c class with dubs on, slammed.
Reply asap.

Dude, you still haven't provided the offset or what specifically your problem is with getting the wheels on (i.e. rubbing, wrong size lugs, camber, etc, etc)...

May I suggest that you STFF for offset. You won't believe the information you can find. On top of that you will also learn. 
P.S.
You might also want to learn to trust the membership and read between the lines. They are trying to help you; whether you believe it or not.

LINK: SEARCH - "offset"
LINK: SEARCH - "wheel fitment"
LINK - SEARCH "Tire size"
LINK - SEARCH "20s"
Seriously, I'm only going to say this once - TRY THE SEARCH.
Try even more word combinations than I gave you above. Main thing is, just try it and READ. Or...are you expecting everybody/all the veterans on this board to hold your hand when you're crossing the street?
Trust me, the search DOES work. You just gotta read. Not having time to figure it out is NO excuse. Not everything is handed to you on a silver platter simply because you own a benz. This is the world of tuning. Best way to learn is READ, especially with the wealth of knowledge that has been spread all over these boards.
A small tip when doing a search. Search in specific forums. If you don't know how to use the CTRL button to select specific forums to search in, you really should take a computer class.

i know the answer......
it cant be done. especaillly on that tire size. u can roll your fender all you want and stiffen ur suspension all you want it will not work.
plain in simple show me someone who made it work, i know some people claim that they have made it work but it is impossible without rubbing. the reason being the front is too big and rubs when it turns.
take it from someone who has tried
btw: ur screwed return the rims take the loss

My opinion is that he is wasting his time and money. Unless you are going to use 20's for show purposes, your basically driving a truck.
Send the wheels back and get 18's or 19's.

I suggest you return the rims, and invest that money in English lessons.
