if you don't think they're similar you are smoking something. and they don't weight 50lbs. 19x8.5 KV5's 27-28lbs. are you sure you are not on crack or something

Mercedes W203 C200K
W204 wheels on W203?

Hi,

Was just wondering if anyone can tell me if I can fit the W204 AMG Sport / Avantgarde wheels (17" x 7.5 + 47 offset front, +58 rear) to a W203 C200K Classic (currently on 15" steel wheels)? If so, are there any compromises? I am concerned about the offsets.

If not, should I just be looking at aftermarket brand wheels instead - (17" x 8")??

Thank-you.

Need some expert opinion!

so, i've been looking for a new set for a while now but my knowledge about aftermarket wheels is not that great. After reading through this thread and some local/ebay shopping around i'm kinda settled on these but in 19s. What do you guys think? Color? Fitment? Price? Rubbing? Kind of Tires? btw i drive a black '02 C320.

just make sure you get the correct hub size because the bolt pattern between a audi and mercedes is the same, but the hub size is different.

I think on a BLACK C320 they are likely to rub - should be OK with any other colour.

Guys, I have a question about spacers, I'm runing with 7,5"x18" ET37 front and 8,5"x18" ET30 original AMG type III slk R171 rims. (tyres 225x40 front 245x35 rear)

I like the rims so much, but I saw my friends rims and the front rims they are using make the car look like its more droped! (less fender gap)
They are using replicas with 8-8,5"x18" ET35 at front, and it put me thinking, Why I never remembered to buy some spacers to put at front!!!

So, my question is, wich spacers to buy to make my rims look like they are 8" or with ET35 or something like that, I realy don't know how to see it!!

For the rears I don't need, since I'm runing on ET30 (SLK ET) instead of ET34 from stock, and the wheel is almost rubing and no fender gap, not even an finger I can put there...

PS: I have eibach springs and koni sports...

Thanks

a 12mm H&R hubcentric spacer will do the trick which makes the ET37 offset to ET25. Assuming he has the 8.5 width with ET35. If he has the 8 width with ET35 you will want to have the 10mm spacer.

Question

Frank,
I have a similar question regarding H&R spacers for the rear of my Coupe.

Can you check my EuroCoupe thread and see if you can suggest something for me... https://mbworld.org/forums/showpost....postcount=1456
