Ok , so the stock offset is 30mm front and 33mm rear, would not a 5mm spacer and a 2mm spacer make these wheels fit like stock?
Anyone here mounted a 35mm offset wheel on an R230?

Offsets are less than 1/4" off stock so that shouldn't be a problem.
As long as the barrel of the wheel is wide enough to clear your brake calipers you should be fine.
