Hi, I want to know if I can put ...

Hi, I want to know if I can put 2006 SLK wheels on my 1998 SLK230. The only thing that doesn't match is the front wheel offset. The 1998 offset is 30 mm, and the 2006 wheel offset is 36 mm.

Is that big enough to make a difference?

1998: 7.5Jx17 ET30 / 8.5Jx17 ET30
2006: 7.5Jx17 ET36 / 8.5Jx17 ET30

  Hi,Richard,The stock rims size for your car is 16*8.0 offset is 30mm,So,8.5jx17H ET30 Rim is ok.And the stock tire size is 205/50R16,your 225/45R17 is out of compatible torlance.

    Thanks!
    I have the performance package, so my car came with the 17" rims (vs the 16" rims mentioned above) - my front rims are 7.5" wide and my back rims are 8.5".
    
    I have an extra set of 225/45R17 tires and I wanted to see if I could mount them on the back rims (8.5" wide) - as I understand your response, the answer is yes. If so, I'll be able to have 225/45R17 tires on both the front and back.

  Hi,Jeff,Both tires from SLK can fit for you car,But the wheel offset from SLK is smaller.It will not poke out,On the contrary,It will carved in.You can buy some spacers to modify it if you like that wheels.

Hi John, thanks. I think I can understand the wheel calculator better today. I thought it was two tires at first! Ha! Now I see a little better. It looks like the suspension parts are brought in closer to the rim, as if the wheel pulls them out farther from the car. Is that the problem with the offset?

  Hi,Daemon,Offset is a num to measure the distance from middle of wheel width to wheel center hole.
