Exclamation Please help me with a fitment question! (C230/CLK)

Hello all,

The car in question is a 2003 C230 Coupe, and the potential wheels are on a 2001 CLK (previous generation bodystyle). They are the staggered AMG Type III 5-spoke wheels.

Here's the question...Mercedes recommends an offset of 37mm for the front and 30mm for the rear, for those same wheels. The CLK wheels I want to add are 31 front and 35 rear.

I'm sorry if this is a stupid question, but can anyone tell me if I'll be OK with this purchase? It seems like a small difference since we're talking millimeters here, but I thought I'd ask anyway...and yes, I did a search but couldn't find a clear cut answer.

Thanks for any information!

Almost all MB OE wheels are interchangable provided they have the same bolt patterns and use the same bolts.

Yes, those wheels can be fitted on a C230K.
