Are these factory or aftermarket wheels that you're trying to put on?

From what I've seen, all the MBZ wheels of recent vintage are the same 66.5mm hub diameter & even the same 5x112 bolt circle, so they should bolt on even if the offset is wrong.

If these are not factory Mercedes wheels, then you probably just need to get the correct centering ring. Most aftermarket wheels are made with a "one size fits all" hub center, then they have a separate small ring that fills the gap.

Ive had issues with C230 and C32 Rims. I can't advise you on your probelm but my issue was the boltzes threads are different sizes.

Off topic but since your a C32 owner Can i ask if your bolts are shorter in the back than the front?

stock C32 front and rear bolts are the same length. aftermarket wheel because of the wheel hub design they might need shorter bolts in the rear. some wheel manufacturer like BBS etc that includes bolts would give you the appropriate bolts. in the case of my BBS RE wheels they are all shorter bolts front and rear.
