2012 C250 Coupe
20 inch wheels and tires

Easy, 20x8.5 (ET42) and 20x10.0 (ET 53) will work the best and there are wheel companies out there that make these sizes correctly for your car. For tires sizes use 235/30-20 up front and 285/25-20 for the rear.

You may wish to go with 19", 19x8.5 front and 19x9.5 (the most common) or 19x10.0 for the rear. 235/35-19 for the front and 255/30-19 or 265/30-19 for the rear will work.

20 inch wheels and tires on the C-Class look cool, but the ride is very harsh and you will be much more likely to bend wheels unless you are a very careful driver. Just a thought.

May I ask MBRedux, what brand are those wheels on the GTR ??

I've next to given up looking for an appropriate set of concaved rims for my C250, probably way to go would be a nice looking staggered dish set up instead and those in the right size would probably also look the goods on a C Class Coupe

Hey Tiger did you have any clearance issues with the 20s with front and rear? What wheel width did you choose?

And with those 20" tire sizes there is no issue with clearance (rubbing) ? Thanks in advance...
