Alloy Wheels for a 240D

I came by a pretty good set of alloy rims for my 82 240D at a good price, and so I bought them. In examining some of the wheel posts it appears that I have purchased a set of 14 inch alloy wheels off of a 126. These are 6 1/2" wide with an offset of 30mm. Will they work on my car??? It appears that 240D's normally use 6" wide wheels with a 25mm offset?

They will take some clean up and refinishing before I put them on the car, but I would forego all of that if I find out that they won't work. If they will work, what size tire would work best with the car and new rims?
