S Series 16 Inchers

[djdownton]

CAN ANY OF YOU GUYS TELL ME IF A SET OF 16 INCH ALLOYS FROM AN S SERIES WILL FIT STRAIGHT ONTO A C CLASS?

THANKS :o

They won't :o as far as I know; certainly the current wheels aren't interchangeable - the offset and the bolt lengths are both different.

Tirerack have a lot of very useful wheel/tyre info, and also of course they sell wheels and tyres :)

EDIT: Just realised that this is in the wrong forum...off to wheels/tyres you go!
