Can They Be Made To Fit?

Got some so-so advice from my MB dealer. I was told I could use my 17" wheels from my 2002 C230 Coupe on the 2008 for winter wheels. Tires were ordered and mounted only to find that the wheel has movement and the bolts dont fit the new holes.

Before I'm forced to order a new set of wheels and bolts, are there any suggestions to retrofit these wheels. These were the optional 7-spoke wheels for the Coupe.

Thanx in advance.

The W203 C-Class has offsets in the 30's (mm) and the W204's have much higher offsets (I want to say 50-ish). And the W203 uses 12x1.5 lugbolts while the W204 uses 14x1.5 like the bigger models. Generally, W203 and W204 wheels are not interchangeable. Although there may be some crazy adapter product on the market
