Thanks for that.. I just talked to WorkUSA and they told me to get et28 front and 32 rear, the et24 front would have some slight rubbing if the car is lowered. But i am getting these at such a good price, im thinking about getting them anyways.
When you say et24 is too aggressive, do you mean its just gonna stick out too far and it wont be flush with the wheel well?
Do you know if there are any other negative effects with running a wheel this size/offset?
Thanks!

It will stick out too far..it might damage your front tires/lips

Ask for better pictures and get one of the valve stem area. There are some dummies in the world that have no clue what Brabus is. It is worth an email to find out for sure.

Let me know your thoughts when you get them and be sure to post pics once they are mounted. you can't beat $600 for a full set of 19" staggered rims...

I highly doubt you will need spacers for anything with those offsets, those look alright....esp with the curved spoke design. I'm curious though what the quality of the wheels is like, aesthetically. I looked at those on ebay but two of the things that worried me were that a) they didn't have a wheel brand associated with them, i.e. stern, moven, etc. and b) i was worried about the paint finish, i.e will it last, crack easily, chip, warranty, etc.

I found rims for my civic the same way a few years ago off ebay with not much info on them and whatnot...they worked out great and never had any issues....HOPEFULLY will be the same THIS time around
I ordered them Friday and they will already be here tomorrow...I had my tires ordered at my local shop so they should be on pretty soon! I cant wait!!!
SO....you doubt I'll need the spacers? I'm gonna try it out and I hope I dont or that will be just oneee moreee thing I'd have to wait for..
My tire shop hould be able to tell me right away whether or not they'll
need the spacers in the front ya?
Hahah I hope I'm not "winging" this one too much

Opinions on these wheels
I'm most likely going to get new wheels within the month or two since I have to buy new tires and I've been very interested in these wheels. I want to know how they'll look running on the stock suspension of a 2004.5 C230. Bascially I dont want it to look like a SUV. I'll eventually get it lowered but not right away, so I want to get opinions from people who have put 19's on their C's with a stock suspension. I.E. whether they looked bad/good, rough ride, etc. Here's the link...

The first thread didnt help, but the second one did. I've been a member since 2004, thank you. And I was also questioning that style and color wheel and how it would fit. I've searched the forum with no luck on that exact set up. Thanks though.

Yeah but his are 18's I believe. I'm hoping there wont be any rubbing issues. I like that color because it matches my pewter color very well. I think it'll look sharp.
