Has anyone done a wheel cross over to other MB vehicles? Im wondering if SL500 wheels will fit on my c43. The offset chart says they are in the right range but Im not sure how they would line up with the wheel wells.

Ditto, its not only the offset that matters but the width, and the bolt pattern. 202s were 5x112.
