Question about interchanging W208/W209 wheels
I have a 2001 320 cabriolet (W208) with (4) 205/55R 16 91H tires.
I need to replace a cracked a wheel and found someone local that has a set of almost new (4) wheels and 225/50R 16 93H tires that came on 2003 320 coupe (W209).
Questions:
1. I believe the 209s came with 205/55R 16 tires up front and 225/50R 16 tires in the rear. Is this true (e.g. he probably only looked at one tire)?
2. If so, are the front and rear wheels; the same with different tires sizes or are the wheels different (e.g. staggered)?
3. Could someone look in the technical information section of their owners manual for a W209 coupe (320/350?) and reply with the specifications for the rims, offset and tires
Thanks in advance for additional help with this.
