Exclamation Can i add 20´s to my c240??????

I have a 2002 C240 and i was wondering if i can put 20´s on it????Has anyone put 20´s on a c240???

I want to put 20´s cuz i dont wana drop the car and go through all the hassle of changing the suspension but will i need to do anything to the suspension if i add 20´s???If i put 20´s will there still be a gap in the front or will the tires rub???

Well if anybody can help me let me know

someone in here has done on 20" on a c class, STFF. To answer your question about gap, there will still be a gap, and the car will look even worst with 20" and no drop. IMHO just go with 19", drop the car and be done with it. You'll go through more trouble in putting 20" on the car, that's just my thoughts.

Agree with you.. Changing to 20" doesnt mean the gap will be gone cos you will have to maintain the overal diameter so your speedo will still be accurate

20's can fit see this thread. I sure the car will ride very hard.
