    225/45-17 is a common size, which is 225 mm wide, then 40% of that for the height

        Porsche wheels need adapters too, so you will be in the same boat either way.

                find out how wide they are, if they're less than 10" in the back, you can fit them. and you'd want to be 9" or lower in the front.

                new skinny tires would help, just gotta stretch them. like put 245's on the 10" wheels and 225's on the 9" etc.

                and you need adapters no matter what, i think they're about $100 a corner.

                      Some people on vortex run 10" wide on the rear with no rolling of fenders. I think you could do 265 if you set things up right.

                        The wheels will fit my Passat. I might be interested in them if I like them. What MB model are they from?

                          5*112 bolt pattern is very common on Audi and MB. You only need to care about the offset(ET).
