would they fit

my friend has mrr gt1 wheels they are 20/8.5 and 20/10. the offset is 35 upfront and rear in the rear. tires are 245/35zr20
225/35zr20
my car is not lowered it is the c240 and it does not have the sport suspension.

the rims look really nice and he is gonna give them to me for practically free.

would they fit? I dont mind rolling my fenders.
I would rather get 19's but if they would fit then I will take them.

if it's a friend of yours and he is local- why not try to fit them up yourself? there have been a couple guys to use 20's- but it was a tight squeeze and i don't remeber the specs of the wheels. i just remember one of them was a black C with Dronell's and the other was some sort of slate blue/grey C with some chrome bling-blings.

I'd bet 20x10 in the rear aint gonna be pretty, no matter what the offset is or what tire size you use.

In addition to fitment, what I would be concerned about is how they're gonna look w/o lowering the car. IMHO, 19's in most cases look out of place w/o lowering, even on the C230 SS which sits an 1" lower than other models...i can't imagine 20's on a C240. 4x4 comes to mind . If you do plan on lowering, consider that when thinking about the fitment.

Yup, 19s make my car look like a 4x4. That's why my next major mod is coilovers.
