Looking for stock 17" wheels for 05 C320
I have 19" wheels that are harsh on the butt. Anyone have some stockers in their garage they are looking to get rid of?

are those 17"s??? If the C320 is a sport sedan, it requires 17" wheels.

Not true. Even if the wheel's are 16", they would probably have a tire with a higher sidewall height (probably 205/55/16), and therefore a similiar diameter. Even if the overall diameter was a little off, the only consequence would be the speedometer being off a few miles per hour. People that add larger wheels to the car increase the overall diameter of the wheel size compared to the stock wheel, and you can use smaller wheels with a lower overall diameter with no consequence. (other than decreased cornering ability)

It doesnt require them for that reason it requires them to clear the brakes.

yup, the large brake rotors require at least a 17" wheel.

I've got a set of 16x7 five spoke rims that came with my '02 C320. Let me know if you are interested. I can post some pix when I get home.

Thanks

Did you change them or are you running stock wheels on your CLK500? The 2005+ sport sedans absolutely have large brakes that require large wheels for clearance.

CLK320 has smaller brakes. Again, the 2005+ C-class sport sedans require a 17" or larger wheel.

Eric is right. The clearance is close even with the stock 17s on the 2005+ cars.
