Introduced in 1993 as a replacement for the 190 (W201) range, the C-Class was the smallest model in the marque's line-up until the W168 A-Class arrived in 1997.

Mercedes C Class wheel fitment
Mercedes C Class wheel fitment for the Mercedes C205 Phev R2CW (2018–2020): the factory PCD, centre bore and bolt spec, then the aftermarket width and offset window we fit to.

| Centre bore | 66.6 mm |
| Bolt / thread | M14x1.5 (bolts) |
| Seat type | radius |
| Factory setup | staggered |
| TPMS | direct |

Aftermarket wheel sizes — read per position:
| Position | Width | Offset |
|---|---|---|
| Front | 7J–8.5J | ET27–ET45 |
| Rear (staggered) | 8J–9.5J | ET35–ET58 |
As a rule, each extra 1J of width wants roughly +8–10 ET to keep the wheel tucked. The exact offset and any spacer are confirmed by the fit-check.
