I think someone posted a W203 with 20" Carlsson 1/16 months ago. So, I guess it is possible. HOWEVER, as everyone said, you will find yourself in quite a bit of trouble putting 20's on: rubbing everywhere, wheels too big, can't turn well, etc etc.....And 20" tires are VERY expensive!!!

I know there are a few C classes with 20" but its a very harsh ride and the rubbing.... Hehe. I concur with everyone, just stick to 19", I know 20" is more "wow" but you will have less headaches with the 19".

I know this car if you used 20" you have change the suspension, and you need coilover and shave some part on that coil lover for the front.
for the rear is no problem to put 20" but make sure is 8.5" 20" should be ok and try to used 245 or 255 tire.....
2nd thing you can't slam the car...
BUT THIS MODIFICATION IS NOT RIGHT AND NOT SAFE
the spring can came off from the shock......

Say this to your self, "22's on a C Class" and see if anything sounds funny. dude you can bearly fit 20's on the car and even with that it rubs like crazy. a C class is a sedan, not a SUV. But what ever floats your boat.

I can see 22's on a 300C, but not on a C Class...It's just too small of a car...

Do a search and see just how many success stories are found when people have tried to slap 20's on a C. It may not be impposible, but even those guys/gals found out that 20's are a bit too much for a C. It's also the reason why the popular wheel builders stopped at 19...good luck and keep us posted...

22's? Man, that's some small isht. I say you put on some new shocks and springs--get them monster truck ones. And put 26's on that ****. Off-road C-class, that'd be HARD!
