Question Will these wheels fit? help needed

Hi..
Thinking of switching out my standard 17 in staggered wheels from 2008 C300 4 matic sport for the following:

from 2010 E350 5 spoke factory wheels
bolt: 5x112
front: 8.5 x 18 (48 offset)
rear: 9 x 18 (54 offset)

Will these fit? and if so..suggestions on tire sizes. any help will be greatly appreciated. thx

Yes they will fit though I think the rear might need a spacer.

Kightmare69...

just checked.. my stock set up is:
f: 7.5 x 17 (47mm offset)
r: 8.5 x 17 (58 mm offset)

do you still think I will need spacer? would i have to change lug nut size?

Given your current specs actually I don't think you'll need a spacer. Odd that the E-class fronts is a higher offset than your current set up. I'd say the best thing to do (if you can) is to test fit the set up even though I'm about 9x% sure it'll fit no problems.

You have to take an account for the width as well. Stocks are 7.5 and the E-Class ones are 8.5. If you put it into the offset calculator, the difference will be 12mm.

http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp I punched the numbers on this website.


Now will it fit? I believe so. If you aren't lowered, it'll be a perfect fit. If you ever plan on lowering the car with H&R SS or H&R coilovers then it will with certain tire size. I do no have any recommendation on tire size as of now. Stock offset and tires aren't my thing anymore so I can't really calculate what clears or what won't lol
