17" x 8-9" alloy wheels, will they fit?
I've been offered a few sets of ex-touring car (BTCC) tyres (both slicks and wets, in various compounds).
The only thing is, I need some 17" wheels to fit them to, that are 8-9" wide.
Does anyone know of a wheel of this size that will fit, and what car they are off of?
Cheers Frank.

My dad has a set of wheels off a roughly 2002 C230 Sport on his W123. The fronts are 17 x 7.5 and the rears are 17 x 8.5; don't have the offset info on me. The fronts and backs clear without having to use wheel spacers, although 4-5mm spacers in the rear would make them clear a little better! We havent tried mounting a rear to the front to see if it would clear, so I have no info on how wide will fit on the front.

a little spacers and fender work and just about anything will fit. much easier to fit wheels than say some sort of fwd car.

I'm still looking for some wheels, but I'd like to keep it on Mercedes alloys if possible, I'll make them fit, I just need to know what Mercedes models have this size wheels fitted.
