19 in Wheels
I'm sorry. I've just became interested in cars. Perhaps, it's because I finally bought my first one. Anyways, I have a 2003 C320. Right now I have the factory 16 inch wheels, but I want to get 19 inch wheels with Pzero Z rated tires that my mother has on her jag xk8. Is that a good decision? And, what is rubbing? Is that what happens when you corner at fast speeds? Sorry for sounding stupid.

i could hook you up with some nice rims. if you dont mind spending a lot, Brabus would be the way to go. I have 19"s on my car and i think that Dunlop SP9000 tires are the best. I've gone through quite a lot of tires... 
Rubbing is when your tires rub against the inside of the wheel well... this usually happens on the inside of the rear tires if you have big rims and lowered sport springs.

2000 on rims and tires? man i spent over 5Gs for my rims.. i think for around that price range you could get 1 piece Carlsson 18s. the bi-xenons will cost you around 1500... also you will have to bribe a mercedes technician to reset your system so that the xenons will work, that will cost you about 100-150. if you wanted to get a Nav system you shoulda just got it as an option on your car straight from mercedes, that woulda been the best way to go. if you need any parts i could hook you up, my friends own a Motorsports company so i can get good prices from them.
