ET35 Offset for 18" wheels on lowered car---will they fit?

Gang,

Will a 35 offset work on an W211? I run a 19" with 32 offset front and 39 rear and it works well. I found some wheels with 35 (front and rear) and not sure if the fronts will work. Any first hand experience would be great.

Thanks in advance

The offset is only one part of the equation in figuring out if something will fit. You need to know the width as well. A 35 offset on an 8 inch wide wheel will not fit the same as a 35 offset on a 9 inch wheel.

The more important thing will be the tire. They will fit with the tire you want to put on them. They would probably even fit with a 265, but they would be really close to the outer wheel well.
