Aftermarket Wheels Fitment (W204)

Anyone know the wheel specs for a c300? I'm looking to buy either 18" or 19" wheels but have no idea about the offset...

Thanks!

you need offset higher than +45, so those wheels fit on W203 will NOT fit on W204 !!

Did you use the advanced search feature? It makes it easier next time you have to search.

Spacers would allow wheels of a different offset to be mounted with enough clearance for the calipers.
For example if you want to use wheels of an offset of 38 on a W204 (offset 45 to 50), you will need a wheel spacer of at least 7mm to correct the offset. As long as your wheels are no wider than 8.5" you should be fine.

C300 wheel change

Since I am don't like the stock Luxury wheels, I am toying with replacing them with the stock 17" C350 AMG wheel. The prices are shocking.

Front 7 1/2 X 17 part#B66031400 $735
Rear 8 1/2 X17 part# B66031401 $795

So I called Caliber Motors in Anaheim (1-800-252-6877) that advertises in the MB Star. I have purchased from them before with considerable savings compared to local dealer retail.

Their prices:

Front $602.70
Rear $651.90

Better but still.....

Their cost for the Sport Grill conversion kit (A204 880 0023 9776) is $142.68 vs $171 dealer retail,
