Wheel Guys - Need help !?!

I have a chance to pick up some 20s pretty cheap. I need to know if ill have any fitment issues...

08 C350

20x8.5 Et +38 230/30 ZR20 x4

I know these arent staggerd but it will give me the option for rotation. Will I need a spacer to clear the front caliper ?

They are Black / chrome KMC KM127's

TIA

way too big for your car.
way to cheap for your car.
factory wheels look better.

if you really want new wheels i would suggest a 19" setup for your car with a cooresponding drop. i don't know the perfect flush fitment offsets for your class but i'm sure it's out there. a 19x8.5" all the way around if you don't want to stagger could work, i'm guessing a mid 20 offset would sit you pretty aggressive looking.

Those wheels won't fit that car properly, the offset isn't high enough to stay inside the fenders, especially if you're talking about adding spacers too. The new C-Class and E-Class require a much higher offset than any other MBZ before. They will physically bolt on but unless you like the roller skate look, I wouldn't do it.
