2002 C230 Coupe
Will the 5x112 size 18x7.5 et38 fit my 2002 c230 coupe?

I am planning to replace my OEM 10 spokes wheels to the Enkei Performance Series OR52 wheels. It has the 18 inch wheels and 38mm offset. I am wondering if it will fit into my car. Thanks for the helps!

Here's some help. Check with Tirerack, Discount Tire, or 1010 tires. All will show you what size wheels will fit correctly on your model.

Thanks for your reply. I have checked on those websites and I know the fact that everything will fit except I am not sure about the offset. Seems like most of the sites have it between 32~35+mm offset on the 18x8 wheels. This is 18x7.5 and 38mm offset. I am just not sure if this will have any negative impact on the fitment. Thanks.

Well, since you have narrower wheels and a little more offset it would appear they fit. The 1/4" each side is greater than the 3mm offset diff. Call Luke at Tirerack and he will tell for you for sure either way.
