hi AV1

if you put 19" on, make sure you choose the tyres, as the right tyres will maintain the ride comfort and grip!
i put yokohama advan sports on , that provide almost same comfort as 17" factory with pirelli. and very quiet too
cheers

Thanks for the pics and tyre advice

It looks great and I like the dual tip outlet too

Are you thinking of lowering it ? hopefully that will not affect ride quality.

How did you get the 19" wheels for it? Is this something that can be done in Australia? My dealer keeps on saying that they can only get the 19" for the C63 model.

Definitely something that can be done anywhere !!!

But as you say here in Aust. if your buying/ordering through the dealer then that particular wheel will only be offered for the C63 variant, you can buy them separately but as your aware they'll cost a fortune.

Just try sourcing them online, there are lots of reps of that wheel around
