I say go 19's, I think they looks cleaner on the W203.

Think about joining our Folding@Home team More information in my signature.

Nope. I have TEIN Super Street (prototypes). Even though they used my car for the R&D on the S-tech's, Basic's and Super Street's, they ended up leaving the Super Street's on my car (which I can't complain about).

Rims sizes won't work. Check the wheel thread to see sizes people have gone with. I think there are only a couple (non-widebody) w203's that had 20's and they both had slight rubbing issues.

The lowering module (kleemann, brabus, renntech, I think awiner did a writeup on all of them when he was purchasing one for his W215) just lowers your car (airmatic or abc)

dont go 20's. 19's fit just perfect. 9.5 in the rear and 8.5 in the front is usually the standard.

Good luck! Just don't say we didn't warn you when you have rubbing issues.

I debadged because I feel that it looks much cleaner than having all the badges on the back. Also, I love when people who don't know about Benz ask me, "What kind of Mercedes is that?"
