Put wheels that actually fit onto your car?

Is this for the C280 in your profile? It's going to look weapons-grade stupid with 20-inch wheels.

Well they're going to have to have the right profile tyres on to keep the same rolling radius, as well as clearance, and the right offsets. No idea what these are for your car but if they're correct I'd say buy smaller wheels.
What size where on before?

If the seller claimed they'd fit, get your money back. Otherwise you'll have to sell them, or turn them into ornaments or something.

(If they foul the suspension they're *nowhere near* right. Goodness knows whether the rears are right, just because they miss the suspension doesn't mean they're right.)

Are you intending doing drive by shootings? If so, I would suggest a diamond in the front teeth to set it all off.

I bet they have transformed the ride quality!! What are you planning to do with it next? I'm sure Halfords will be able to help with your modding bug. They now sell big shiny gear knobs with flashing leds on them. They're certain to complement your pimping new wheels!
