Will they fit?
Will they fit?
Thanks for reading this, and I hope someone has some input on the subject.
Found a set of what I believe are 8 hole rims and winter tires off a 2000 C230 for a couple hundred dollars, I have seen similar rims put on members W123s so before they come home with me I wonder what it takes to make them fit.
Thanks for reading this, and I hope someone has some input on the subject.
You will need a least a 10mm spacer and longer lug bolts to make it work.
10mm is pretty thick, so I suggest using a hubcentric type of spacer to minimize vibrations.

Just not a big fan of the 14" stockers and maybe too anxious to be done with them! Will 17" fit even?
Seems like the rims I really want keep slipping between my fingers - both sets were removed from ebay before the bidding ended. Not sure how I feel about them so will mull it over while away from home working.

05-30-2012, 12:13 AM #8I'm gonna put some 16X6.5" (not sure of the offset) wheels on my car, as soon as I get enough money to get them sandblasted and powder coated, and buy new tires haha.

Now from what I could see off the Mandrus website these are the Millenium rims with a 32mm offset, but the owner isnt 100% sure. I have asked him to take some pictures of the back of the rims in the hope that they will have some offset info stamped on them.
Heading up to take a look at them next week so any input on the company and or fitment is appreciated THANKS
ALSO why cant I get the HTML link from my Photobucket account to work?????
So still looking for a set of rims and tires to replace my Bundts, and came across a guy selling these Mandrus 17" off a 1999 CLK 320.

Getting these painted flat black might be the way to go.
Found another set of rims that tweaked my interest.
