what is the widest wheel fitment for the front of a w203? will 18x9+24
+24 offset fit??

Nitrous Garage

No that will be too aggressive. You want an 18x8.5 mid 30 to high offset. Did you have some wheels in mind?

Alswag

If I remember correctly, the widest tires that will fit on the W203 would be 255. But I could be wrong.

phister

Have 18x9 +15 in front about to do 9.5 front and 11 rear

BenzoLenny

i think with a good set of spacers ill be fine

BenzoLenny

ill never get to a 255 tire my tires currently are 205 lol

BenzoLenny

with a high off set of 38 with a 8.5 rim my car was rubbing the shock so now im gonna go wider with a lower offset

BenzoLenny

im actually looking at work or weds wheels

pww

18x9 + 24 should be pretty solid.

Currently trying to figure out if 18x9.5 18x11 is possible... So you should buy my wheels

BenzoLenny

Haha I would but I'm getting work wheels. 11 in the rear lol ill sticl with 9 infront because I dont want it to damage my bags if not ill get them made to 8.5

Brada Wheels

I know we were able to fit 19x9" with 3" lips and 19x10" with 4" lips on 225/35 and 245/35 tires on ours! The fronts just clear our AMG brakes though, and with 2 degrees of camber they just fit!

phister

Have 18x9 +15 in front but did some major fender rolling

pww

18x9 + 12 with a 225 and no fender work in the front. Only rubs at full lock, and thats with H&R coils all the way down.

Pretty sure C55 fenders are wider than a standard w203

Jay_Soprano

Looking to get some stance wheels which don't have a lip... Looking for the concave look on a 19inch wheel what's a very aggressive et?

greekspec2

19x11 on the rears with a max of a 6inch inner barrel and depends on your spoke curvature and pad depth....'every wheel design is going to fit different' I never pay attention to offset........
on the front depending on the wheel design and my car is a C55 I have Schmidt Vn Lines which have a very curved spoke which allows me to run a ..
19x9.5 et22
V3 hub pad
6" inner barrel
3.5" outer barrel
no spacer, no body work needed and a flush fit no poke with no negative camber...


my rears are...
19x10.5 et29
V2 hub pad
6" inner barrel
4.5" outer barrel
once again flush no poke, no body work, no spacers no negative camber, I wanted to do 5" outers but I did not want poke or wanted to add any negative camber....keep in mind X brand or design wheels won't get the same fitment even with the same specs because it with have a different center

here's a link to show you the different fitments for my wheel,

Volker Schmidt has most car's on file and this takes the guess work out of fitment

BenzoLenny

I know my Brabus CV8 is built off the C320 but not sure if any wider. Looks about same but has 235's front and 265 rear no problem.

New to fitment and offset info.

Hoping to revive this thread and get some input.

Looking to buy a set of wheels and the fitment i need to go with would be 17x9 35 offset in the front on 235. In the rear im looking at 17x9 and a 22 offset.

Was hoping i wouldnt have any issues with touchin the brakes.

Id just worry about going up a tire size in the front and then I cant use a spacer to get me away from brake contact.

Any input would be awesome.
