will these rims fit my c230?

w209 slk clk500 wheels 17*7.5 front and 17*8.5 rear. i know the size is the same but im wondering about the offset and all that other good stuff. im new to wheels haha

Ive been waiting for a set like these for a LONG time. its just the right price ($450!) and at just the right location too (right where my school is!)

Believe the offsets are pretty high on those wheels you'll need spacers

i like the design, if the offset around 35 i think it will fit on your car, but maybe you'll need some spacer

it'll fit... same spec as the original C32/slk32 wheels. these were used on the 208 clk and the 209 clk as well as the SLK and 203 from other countries depending on the options.

17x7.5 et37 and 17x8.5 et34.

some C32s had these from the factory before the twin spoke type-4 were available.
