Wheel Fitment
Hi Everyone,
My sister just got the new facelift b class. She asked me to help her mod it a bit. Just wondering what is the biggest rim size I can fit? I was thinking of putting on 18"s or 19"s BBS lms reps or is there any OEM rims I can fit? There is a lot of W204 C class rims used for sale in my area. What will be a good offset? And I notice there is not much mods in market yet. Only see carbon mirror covers. Thanks guys!!

I had mine on 18" now. This is my 4th set.
1st on 16" run flats 205/55/16 harsh ride (stock wheels and tyres.) Bridgestone Turanza T001
2nd on 17" normal tyre 225/45/17 better ride but doesn't look big enough. Tyre not enough grip as they are comfort tyre. Yokohama Advan DB V551
3rd on 19" 235/35/19 abit harsh ride but due to not wanting to mess with insurance now 4th set. Nexen N6000. Very grippy tyre but make noise when cornering. Shoulder thread.
4th on 18" 225/40/18 front, 255/35/18 on rear by far best setup although it's not a RWD car. Loves corner but more road noise due to 255 section. Best looking especially from rear. Wide section tyre look more muscular - Continental Sport Contact 3. Tyre noise quiet high on B-Class but quiet on VW Passat B6 (ex-car)
17x7 et49
18x8 front et50 and 18x8.5 et54.
19x8.5 et45
Next is 18x8 all round 235/40/18 should be the best combo comfy and handling. Tyre would be Conti Sport Contact 3 ContiSeal.
