offset question

[Heinz]

Hi, I was wondering if a 18x8" ET38 wheel would fit on a standard w202 or c230

If the offset is bigger amount will the Lip get larger as well ?


Thanks for reading.

It will fit, but you'll definitely want to add spacers to flush it out a little. Probably a 10 up front and 15s in the rear.

[Heinz]

ye I was thinking of spacers.

Do you think I could put 18x9 in front & rear ?

that way I wouldn't need spacers :)

[jnolte]

i got spacers for sale ;) 10mm and 15mm

[Heinz]

low offset = wider lip
high offset = smaller lip

depends on how wide is the rims & the lip/dish type.
18x8 with +38 offset will prob have small lip.

Will the Offset of 35mm will touch the calipers ? 30mm will be better right ?

is the width 8,5 front & Rear?? or it's staggered (different width front & rear)?
if it is the same 8,5, then get 35 offset up front and 30 at rear. ;)

yes they fit just fine.
my wheels is 19x8 (+34) & 19x9,5 (+26) and got no problem with it.
I'd say go for it.

post some pics when u've fitted ur wheels. :)

Sorry to jump in on your thread but I didn't want to start a new one if it wasn't needed. Would 18x9 et37 front and rear fit without need any further adjustments?
