If they are original Mercedes wheels Yes they will fit
if they are aftermarket /replica they might have a different offset and may rub

W221 OEM wheels generally use ET43 front and rear, which will work fine with W220.

However, those tires will have a greater diameter than stock w220 wheels, so you may get a rub on the inside of the front wheel arch liner on the front wheels on full lock.

Check those et numbers ( the 35s) they should not be the same front and rear...should be 30 on the rear...and a narrower width as mentioned above.

Ideally 245 35 and 275 30.

w215

i have installed the 20'' wheels
they seem to work fine, but the only problem is with the front tires.
245/40/20
every time i turn the wheel right or left to the max the tire rubs on the inner body.
i think i should go for 255/35/20
and rear tires 285/30/20
please let me know what u guys think
thanx
