Does anyone know if the 2000 W202 C230Kompressor Sport has rolled fenders from the factory? Reason is, I will be equiping it with 18 x 8.5 Wheels. I have a staggered setup, 225 18 Front and 245 18 rear. I forget the actual sidewall height, but is either 45 or 35. Also, does anyone think I'll have a problem with rubbing?
Thanks. |

Well The fenders have to be rolled, since they don't come rolled from the factory. The proper setup for 18" are, 225/40/18 up front, and 255/35/18 in the rear. Usually, people go with a staggered rim set up as well if you will stagger the tires. A good combo is 18x8 up front and 18x9 in the rear.

Chriag is correct on the tire and wheel sizes but, you should not need a fender lip roll if you use the proper wheels with the proper offset. AMG has several options that will work perfectly. Let me know if you need more info.
Thanks, Luke

Thanks guys, for the help. The rims that i have are Brabus V Monoblock. 18 x 8.5. I don't know what the offset is. Do you think I might still experience some rub in the fenders?

Hey Luke, you know better then me, but I thought the 255s require a fender roll? Just checking.

The 255's do not require a fender lip roll if install with the proper wheel size and offset.
