The new R232 SL has larger wheels and tire diameter than the R231.
So as a direct bolt-on that would be a no.
The R232 uses a 35F/30R tire on a 21” rim while the R231 has the same for 19” wheels (for diameter reference).
Given that the offsets of the R232 are much higher (56F/67R) vs the standard R231 19” at 34.5F/48R, they should fit with large wheel spacers. I am thinking 25mm, but likely 30mm.
You will just have to get smaller diameter tires. Am thinking 30/25 but a tire calculator will give you specifics.
Personally I would get 20” forged cross spoke AMG wheels from another AMG model before taking R232 take-offs
