Rim fitment

[taz069]

To all have found a great set of rims. Off a 2002 clk 320 will the 19" 235x35x19 fit?? To go on a 1996 c280!

[taz069]

They do appear to be of the 5x112 wheel lug but as far as the 19" and offset? Dont have a clue. Any thoughts!

[taz069]

340$ is the price but some bartering is at work! Telescope and a little cash. Can or will they work?

19s are a little too big for our cars imho.. i have 18s and thats probably the biggest i will go.

[ll1l2l1l2lll]

Offset and width?

[michaelmrbenzy]

yeah i agree 19s are a bit big for the W202.

19's are indeed too big unless you have air ride, and u can lay it down then by all means... but since i guess you dont, i would say this... pick them up, clean em up. flip em for double the price and get your self some wheels you would really enjoy...

Thanks everyone. Getting some brake rotors and radiator today instead of the rims. Thanks again. For the quick replys'!

Have located the type of rims i would love to use on my 1996 c280. Ebay item 300699045934. They are 17 inch c230 kompressor sport rims. Year ????? Used the sticky for offset calculation just don't understand it. The front and rear have the same diameter and width 17x7.5, both have +35mm offset. The best i can tell on my stock rims is 15x6.5 with 37mm offset. Would these 17's fit mine???????? Thanks.

[wichipong]

17s with 35mm offset will fit fine

i was running 17X7.5 et37 for a while before i switched to 18s.

[taz069]

Thanks a ton wichipong!!! Will now scour the world wide web for a set i can afford. The ones on ebay are the style i truly like. They will show off the cross drilled rotors that are due in this week. Just a few more motor pieces first radiator and ac clutch. Then tires and rims are the next hot thing!!!! A little thing called the project car, it cannot overwhelm my other duties and pocket book lol. Thanks a million again.

[taz069]

Just installed my new rotors and ceramic pads. Let's see if I can get some pics sent thru this droid!

[taz069]

Evidently not. Will do later today. Sorry.
