I am going to the Alps and I have bought myself some 2nd hand 225 55 16 winter tyres that are on steel rims for my S211. My original plan was to swap over the tyres on to my alloy rims but now I'm wondering would these steel rims fit OK on to my car. My alloy wheels have an offset of 42 whereas the steel rims are the same size but have an offset of 47. Could I fit these steel rims to my car or would I need to do something first? I'm guessing that I will have to get new bolts as the bolts for the alloy wheels will probably be too long for the steel rims. Your help and guidance will be much appreciated. Steve
