1995 Mercedes AMG Rims fit from 2004 E-Class?

I could really use some help. I am new to the community here because i purchased my first Mercedes and it's amazing!

However, I wanted to upgrade the rims and found a deal for some 18inch rims off an 2004 E-Class AMG series.

I currently have 15 inch stocks on my 1995 C-280 AMG.

I have not found much info on the fit or if I will need spacers. Can anyone provide any info in this situation?

I know the tires are bigger in the back: 245/40 ZR18, 265/35 ZR18

Thanks

What country are you in? The 1995 W202 AMG car was the C36 and it's 16" wheels will also fit W203 models but not W204 because the front brakes of the 204 are too large. And that's Lux models.

Can't say much about W211 wheels except question the offset.

Thanks for response. Car was manufactured in Germany but purchased here in Connecticut.

So through your specifications, they will not fit because of the front brake pads or the wheel and fender spacing?

They won't fit because the W204's front brake discs are larger diameter making the caliper contact the front wheels. The rears will fit since the discs are smaller but I'm referring to the Lux brakes, not the Sport which I believe are larger diameter, at least in front.

Observe the C36 wheels on my 2001 C320, traded in 2007.
