Do these rims fit on W203?

front is 18x8.5 and the rear is 18x9.5 with the offset being 45mm.

I am planning to get new rims,, but I am not quiet sure if these rims fit on my w203, year 2003 C320.

Hey Tim. you would need to run spacers to make them work. 10mm minimum or 15mm with respectively longer lug bolts. make sure they are hubcentric as well if you do go with spacers.

Good luck, Greg

Thanks for your quick reply Greg, where can I get the spacers and longer lug bolts and how much does it cost at all?

Tim, check out the tirerack or just google "mercedes H&R spacers." I would also check out the classified section on here. Spacers and bolts should be in the $150 or so range for the whole set-up. Remember that Mercedes W203 needs a 66.6mm center bore for perfect centering on the hub.

+1 to glocati's statement. I have Eibach 10mm on my front wheels to make them clear the brake caliper. Both H&R and Eibach are excellent brands. That's a really big offset, 45mm, I would recomment getting at least 35mm or lower for these cars. Do you have that option or is it only in 45mm?

hey i know thats a really cheap price for the rims and tires but you have to go all the way to canada or pay a couple hundred shipping plus the cost of the spacers, one pair of Eibach spacers is minimum $100 and you will need some for both front and rear. check this out:

you can specify which offset you want so you wont have to get the spacers. with the tires you will end up paying a little more but you will have brand new rims with no curb rash and brand new tires. personally, i would go for the brand new but its up to you.

Thank you so much Mulac !
I would take into consideration whether I would buy a brand new or the used one.
It is really pricy to buy the all set and I still got to drive all the way to Canada...
