1999 C43 AMG
c43 and c36 owners. which wheels mandrus or stock?
On a black c43 1999. The mandrus wheels are 19 inches staggered, and the oem monoblocks 17 staggered. I dont want to make the wrong trade and regret the look later. The c43 sits low on vogtland springs. Thanks

On the w202 body style, I think the mono blocks look great.
But as ghiaguy said, try the w202 forum, they should be able to help you out better.

I would be concerned about the ride. I went from 18 to 17 on my CLK recently and the ride is much better. If you go from a 17 to a 19 the tire is going to be a lot thinner and also more expensive. another to consider is the weight of the wheel? more un-sprung weight is not what you want a sporty car generally.
