05 C230 SS/ 01 Jetta 1.8T/97 CR-V
2005 C230SS w/ 19" Rays MasterPiece DIA106
After contemplating over Vellano VSA which would have cost $5500 with tires I decided to get the Rays Engineering DIA106. Not bad with the Diamond cut finish. Hope you all enjoy cause its too hard to find wheels that clear the big brakes.After visiting 6 Shops in the area and countless hours looking at this thread and many others I finally found something that fits, still appealed to me, and didnt cost an arm and a leg. Sorry about the dirty looking tires. Brand new tires and I didnt have time to put on some dressing.

about the side markers - i agree with the clear -- BUT-- if you dont mind spending the 150 bucks to buy a set of "euro impact strips" you should! the euro impact strips dont require the sidemarkers overseas therefore it is omitted. check em out! i ordered a set of clear sides for now -- but when i wanna spend the money one the new ones im gonna go that route for sure! ![word](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/werd.gif)

C 240 4-Matic
New as well - Hi!
Hi;
Thought I'd post a pic of our "new to us" C 240. This is after a 100 mile drive in a snow storm and sitting overnight in a light snow. Before it warmed up and I plowed the drive. To much stuff in the garage, but I corrected that situation today. Now I have almost all my cylinders in one place.
Now I know why I wanted a 4-Matic. This car is rock solid in the snow, both fresh and hard packed. But it also shows why it need mud flaps. have them, just got to get them installed.
So far, I love the car, well worth it's price. just flipped 30K yesterday.
We live in a rural area mostly, with questionable snow removal, slow at best. So the need for a sure footed car is important. I can't drive the truck everywhere and it not a very efficient way to get around when it's just the two of us. I can't wait to learn more about the car and get some "personalization" done.
Anyway, Hi and we'll catch ya later.

C 240 4-Matic

I read your install thread. Well done. And I wouldn't worry about what the naysayers blurt out. That's why there are many different choices in making a car or anything else your own. There's no need to be negative. IMHO.
By the way, nice car.. Check my snow covered version.
