Upgarding Wheels

I have an 1998 E200 with 195/65/15 steel wheel rims and wish to upgrade to bigger alloys wheels.
I have been looking on ebay but do not know which part numbers will fit my car or what size I can go up to?
Do all Mercedes wheels from the different classes fit?

On the rear of your wheels there will be an ET number,is 34,41 something.
that number is important to maintain the stability of the car.

Next thing is they must be hub centric, that is MB wheels have a flange that fits over the hub to center them, If you do not fit compatable wheels you will never balance them.

Someone else should come on with the sizes.

Have a look in the manual for your car. It in the back, it has a list of acceptable wheel and tyre combinations.

I'd say that as long as your wheels of choice fit within those combinations, you'll be fine.

The wheels on mine aren't in my manual, but they're well within spec.

look on the Russian site in the wheels section of your car they will list all options as well as MB part numbers and all wheel dimensions Diameter J and ET
