Hi guys.
Ive got a chance to get a set of brabus monoblocks cheap but Im worried about the fitment as Im not that good with wheel specs 😅
Ive got an E320CDI and the wheels are 8.5J et35 in front and 9.5J et45 in the rear. How would they be/look on the w210 ? Maybe someones got wheels with the same width and offsets ?
Thanks!
Your data you provided is too vague. Need more nfo.
w210 year? update your user cp info.
No brabus wheel dia specified?
What is your present wheel and tire setup?
Also, all tires have slightly different width profiles, that will make or break proper fitment wrt the wheel well lip, so while a wheel may fit, a tire may not.

Ahh sorry. My car is a 2002 model ant the brabus wheels are 18" and the ones currently on the car are the OEM 16" wheels but im not sure about the width. And I dont mind sourcing the right tyres, just wondering if it wont poke out like crazy.

You're in the wrong forum. This is w210.
You have a w211.
I believe the wheels might work but you'll still need to identify the tires you plan to put on the wheels. The ET for the front wheel is within the acceptable norm for the 210. The rear is higher than normal but if anything, it wouldn't be 'sticking out' but sticking in as the normal ET just slightly lower. I am not envisioning the tires rubbing any body or suspension on either end unless you go crazy on the tire size but that remains to be seen pending further info from you.
If you go to any of the offset sizing engines online you should be able to gauge roughly how much the wheel differs with respect to your exisitng tire/wheel offsets. I'm sure you know that you'll incur the higher cost for staggered configuration as you won't be able to rotate your tires in traditional fashion.

It's going to be tight at wheel well lip for both front and rear (depending on the tire width you use). Example shown is with 265s and staggered monoblocks 8 & 9 on my amg vs. your 8.5 and 9.5 with the same 265s.
Since your ET is larger, you may need to check it clears on the inner side on the suspension side. This should be ok.
But it could end up looking like a hot wheels toy car, if your suspension ride height is not addressed.
Dry fitment is recommended.
