What width? The offset needed also depends on the width. If those are the wheels from your W140, the wheels are running at ET40+ whilst the W210 uses offsets in the 30's, depending on the wheel width and whether they are the front or rear ones. The W140 wheels will mount on the car (same PCDs) but will be sitting very far inside the fender........looks and performance will definitely be compromized. I also seem to recall the W140 uses a larger bolt, again possible, but not a good idea to mount using smaller bolts.

Then it is confirmed they are W140 wheels with different sized bolt holes and will sit further inside the fender on ET42....as said, the different sized bolt hole and lug seats is not a good idea, possible but not a good idea.
