Wouldn't a 10mm spacer in the front be too big? I read somewhere on this forum a couple of times that anything more than an 8mm spacer in the front is too big. I drive a C coupe.
Sorry for my noob questions. I'm really new to this stuff & am trying to learn & confirm as much as I can before I commit big bucks to some wheels.

FYI - Not everything you read on these forums is good information. There's plenty of people who think they know what they're talking about but don't have a clue. I'm running 12mm spacers up front.

Hi,
I'm thinking to change 18' to 19' with inside in titanium colour.
Do you think it' will look good without extra lowering?
Right now it's lowered somethink like 1.5 or 2 cm

I'd say no faster than 10 or 15 miles an hour. It wasn't so bad, though. No metal got damaged & since I sell cars at a Benz dealership, with getting parts at cost and super cheap labor I ended up making a killing on the whole thing. Went for a factory grille painted black & I think it looks lots better. Too bad the E63 bumper came out for the C class about 1 week after I had mine replaced, or I would have bought that.
