Wheels that will Fit 96 C36
I am looking for a set of "roller" wheels for my 1996 Mercedes C36.
What would be a good donor car to source these from? Will stock wheels from a 1995 Mercedes C280 fit? I am not well versed of hub sizes. Thanks |

Check brake rotor diameters to see if the C36 used larger rotors. The stock 15" wheel might not clear large brakes but is uses the same pattern / hub bore as a regular C .
Worst case I'd expect the 16" from a similar era E ( w210 ) to fit. |

Those were my exact thoughts.
Thanks. |

If it’s a roller just take the brakes off

Having done this several times on C36 parts cars, you'll need 17s to clear the brakes. Some 17s will need spacers on the front.
I have a set of OZ 17s from a 210 that I use for my C36 parts cars, and they need a 10mm spacer on the front.

I just looked at pics of the car, in this thread https://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/mercedes-benz-cars-sale/400004-fs-1996-mercedes-c36-project-parts-car.html
The RF looks like a 97 era E class W210 16 " wheel , I don't recall this style being made in 17" . |

FYI, the front brakes on the C36 were sourced from the R129 SL600 and the rears are from the W124 E420. There's a great article about it here:
