I'm bumping this thread so that everybody is aware that there is now information on the first post of this thread that has Wheel Fitment for every mercedes model available (including approved offsets). The members that were responsible for providing the link and requesting it stickied are indicated.

That being said, please be aware and consider this a pre-warning that every new thread that indicates "Will these wheels fit my car" or anything to that extent will be locked and/or deleted. Thanks for your cooperation - drexappeal.

I'd go with 19", but thats me. If the roads are bad in your area or you want to lower it, you should get 18" then.

People on the board lowered their cars with 19's too, but I personally think that this setup could give you more problems then you'd anticipate.

It may look odd with the gap between your wheel and fender. Lower it a little with spring just to close the gap.

Euroteck has a wheel+tire package on those Bremmas and I think you can use your OEM centercaps.

Stock suspension on the coupe is not as low as the 04.5+ sport sedans. Of course his car would look BETTER with a drop, but I don't think it's as necessary on the new sport sedans as it was with 01-04's.

To answer your tire question, nobody can tell you what the best tire hands down is because alot of it comes down to preference. The best tires I've ever had were Pirelli PZero Nero's.

also, the 19's will have the 1.5" lip in the rear whereas the 18's do not, even in a staggered setup.
