Waht is the offset of these wheels, and will they fit?

I think the 300E's offset is 35mm and the E430 Sport wheels are 41mm offset. However, they are 17 x 8J and will not fit without a fender roll.

The 17x7.5 that you are describing sounds like the AMG Monoblock II. If they are, then they are 17x7.5 ET 35, and should fit fine on your W124 300E. Make sure about the spec of this wheel, and see if they look like this:

- 99 Mercedes-Benx ML 430 V8 w/custom TV, Video, UHF, speaker system
- 93 190E 2.6 (4-sale) w/ an amp, equalizer, and CD-changer, integrated w. stock stereo for integrated cellular phone speaker system
- had a 93 190E m103 3.2, 5-speed trans,
- had a 88 300E 2.6
- had a 84 300TD w/275k+ miles
- 2001 C-Class - Maybe (if 190E sells)

The 7.5" wheel with a 35mm offset will work fine on your 300E. the 8" wheel would need a higher offset in order to work and would possibly cause rubbing problems if you haven't rolled the fenders.

The wheels that I am looking at are 17x7.5 et 41. They are off a W210 E430 and I'd like to install them on my 300E. The way i see it, I guess the wheel will fit the car, however the tires that are mounted on them are (OE) 235/45/17. Even with a fender roll Im uncertain they will fit without rubbing. Anyone have any luck with a setup like this on a 300E.
Thanks
