W203
If by "stanced" you mean silly amounts of camber on silly wide wheels and stretched tires - you won't find many pics. That's style hasn't really been a hit on Mercedes.

If you mean wheels pushed out flush with the body - there's tons of pics of that and probably a million "spacers" threads.

Not looking for anything ridiculous, in the W204 section they have a stance thread with over a hundred 204s with flush wheels and stretched tires but you really have to dig to find 203s with the same setup.

Very nice I'm in the process of getting to a stance like yours and this is my first W203, I know what to do on my Audi A4 and its set up right on coilovers and spacers......Do you use coilover or spacers on your beast??

your rims are super nice as well I as well have a white W203 and am going all Matte White soon with white and black rims.

Also I see that you have dual exhaust, did you do that set up your self or did you find it somewhere??

Thanks for the help............just trying to find my way with my first Benz.

Hey, thanks for the comments. I actually have tein coilovers to lower it and i am using a 15mm spacer up front and an 8mm spacer in the rear. The dual exhaust was done at AAA Muffler in LA, then redone at Cypress Muffler in Cypress. You can find out more about it all in the link in my sig... congrats on your first w203. Matte white will be sick. Check out Franks, his is Matte white as well...

lol.. plenty of people have this style exhaust around here. Its custom done, i used a magnaflow muffler and AAA muffler in LA put together. I then changed it back to my stock muffler but kept the same setup. Cypress muffler did that for me. I have a youtube clip with the magnaflow somewhere, but it sounds like everyone elses with the magnaflow.

Wow, those are all very nice looking. How wide of wheels are you guys running? I'm thinking I would prefer to not get staggered wheel sizes so that I can rotate tires front but not sure how that would work out.
