Will these fit?
I know questions like this one have been asked here before and I searched and found a lot of threads about offset, size, etc. but I'm still a little confused. I'm looking at the AMG style 830 wheels from Power Wheels Pro. They are 17x8 and come with an offset of 50mm and 32mm. Will the 50mm ones fit my car or is the offset too high? I have a 2008 C300 Sport. Thanks for your input.

My powerwheelspro.com wheels are 17x8 on all 4 corners with ET44 (Style 810). Yours will be 6 millimeters more inboard than mine (two-tenths of an inch)...should be just fine.

That's the interesting part. Originally, I had asked for staggered wheels (7.5 front and 8.5" rear) to match the original specs, but style 810 came in 17x8 only. Not long before getting the wheels, I had already upgraded from original Continental ProContact to the Michelin Pilot Sport A/S Plus in the matching original staggered sizes. Checking the 1010tires.com wheel calculator, I saw that I could use my staggered tires on the new 8" wide wheels. So, a bit of a long-winded explanation that I have the original staggered tire sizes, 225/45-R17 in front and 245/40R-17 in rear running on 8" wheels all around. Works perfectly!

Interesting to know that I can keep the staggered set up. I'm not in need of tires right now so I would be doing the same thing. I wonder if there's a difference if I go with the same size tires all around when it's time to get new ones.
