W212 rims on C207?
Hi,
I was just wondering if there were any issues with clearance with stock/oem W212 rims on the C207.
W212:
Front - 18x8.5 ET48
Rear - 18x9 ET54
C207:
Front - 18x8 ET45
Rear - 18x8.5 ET49
Checking the offset, it seems it's going to be about 1cm less inner clearance and I was wondering if that is an issue or if anyone else is running OEM W212 rims on their C207.
Thanks in advance for any help.

might be an issue with caliper clearance depending on the style of the wheel/spokes, I had that problem on some wheels that were W212 fitment but was mainly due to the style of the wheel.

Thanks for the reply.
The wheels in question would be the same ones as these:

Any ideas about those?
