Would 19" wheels with 35mm offset work on W204?
Looking to purchase some new wheels ..
found a couple I like, but only come in 35mm offsets..

I know I should be looking for 45mm or so..
Would there be any way 35mm offsets would fit?

depends on the weather
35 offset wheels will cause fender rubbing, tramlining, bump steer & excessive bearing wear ... keep looking

All are guesses without the actual width of the wheel.

I would test fit them if you can, with tires if possible. Each car is different, whereas one may not fit the wheels, some might. You could also size the front tire down one size (i.e. 225/35-19, all you'd need to make sure is that the load index is good for front and rear, and if you buy a good brand (Michelin, Goodyear, Pirelli, Continental) they all offer extra load tires, that would more than accommodate you.
