I am confused.. C55 OEM rim's offset..?

I have been research and people listed their C55's OEM rims offsets differently than what's actually on back of the rim..

I am trying to sell my OEM rims and wondering which one is right..

If i look at my back of rim it says offsets are..

Front : 30 ET
Rear : 34 ET

However, some people in listed as

Front : 37 ET
Rear : 30 ET

which is right guys????

I'll see if I can get the offset off the back of the C55, I can't remember if I have c55 wheels or clk55 wheels on my c32. I'll have to check what offset they are.

I've recentlydouble checked as well since I'm considering selling my C55 wheels too. The wheels read F7.5 ET30 and R8.5 ET34. The other offset you mention is for the CLK55.

That is correct. The stock front rims that came with the C55 were SPECIFIC to the C55 and not used on any other model at the time. The front offset of 30 was meant to increase the front track width over all other W203 cars to increase handling and grip up front.

RE: C55 Rims

Offsets on mine are 30 front/34 rear.

I'm looking to go with some all season tires for the winter months soon.

If anyone is looking to sell their OEM C55 rims, please shoot me a PM.
