Hello all,
I recently purchased a used MB wheel set (14 spoke from a W204) with the intention to use it with my winter tires. The problem is the offset is different:

Front tires / wheel width: 225/45R17 / 7.5”
original offset: 36MM
second set offset: 47MM
Difference: 11MM

Rear tires / wheel width: 245/40R17 / 8.5”
original offset: 30MM
second set: 58MM
Difference: 28MM

The problem with these differences is the tires are now too close to the shock (or touch). I was looking at several options for wheel spacers in eBay and wanted to ask if anyone has used spacers and which brand. Any recommendations?

Thx. CA

Years ago I ran into the same challenge. Easy to resolve

 

Thanks! This is super helpful... q: di you happen to still have the name of the retailer? Many thanks in advance.

 

I'm in Switzerland so I got them from Germany https://www.autodoc.de/ The site is in German. You can have the German site auto-translated or go to the bottom of homepage and select the English website. Note that prices displayed by default are inclusive of locat VAT (i.e 19% for Germany). The VAT is deducted at checkout. Your US import taxes might be charged upon arrival. This being said I'm sure you can source those spacers from either Amazon or Ebay.
