Wow, your video is the coolest ever. It's legal to drive in those place? Wow.
No one even bothered to comment. What music is that?

many thanks to all for your comments 
that wheels sugestion was also a nice option, but I think that they are the s-class wheels, and I'm not sure, but think they are 8+9"..
C230, thanks! yes, it's legal, thats Amarante, my city, near from Porto, Portugal
about the music, lol, I dont remember at this moment, but I think it works fine to the result that I was looking for...
about the next wheels, I'm just trying to confirm the buy, but next wheels are Porsche eta beta krone..

those are indeed S-class wheels , style 'Alioth'
they are 8.5 ET44 in front , and 9.5 ET46 in back, 18" wheels...
they would look great, but ET-sizes aren't that great...

JoăoMerc, obrigado!
yes, some super RS like that would look nice, but they are very expensive for me :/ and I didnt want some replicas like Dare rs...
lepez, thanks for the clarification, I didnt know that, but the ET's problem is no problem with spacers
but for my budget I was looking for some decent 18's, and I was looking for 2 or 3 piece exclusive wheels..I also was looking for some wheels that never had seen on a w203..and I have choose this ones:
lets see if it works fine..

I've just checked out your Benz. It looks f...ing amazing....
I almost bought a set of Alphards but they are already too common in Hungary, I mean you can see them on every th VW.
RH is a good choice as well.
I did not think about the lowering but maybe some pure springs might be come next year if I'll still have the 203. For me it is very important to use the car very often and I don't want suffer beacuse of the too low chassis and same things.

Hey!
Where are those rims?
From December I am in my country again, maybe I could help you to get fancy rims.
Do you like multipiece wheels? Or kind a monoblocks?

Hello!
Very nice! But I don't know how they will look on the car. This style is not so "modern" as the w203. I almost bought them as well.
So I am waiting for you to put them on your Benz and share the photos
I am looking for now 1 piece of 18" AMG III wheel. I found other 3 in very good shape but the 4th one is broken and I want replace it with an other one. So we will see.

phister aeros was matte black, then they have been painted in "champagne" silver...
thanks phister, but your old aeros was 17", these ones are aero2, 18"
OEM they are all round 8,5 et44, but that is not good to the w203 rear, so they have been rebuild, and they will have wider rear lip, to 9.75"
the centers will be painted in matte silver
in front they need spacers, just not sure if I would go to 10mm (to et 34) or 15mm (to et 29)

well, istván, yes, they fit on w203. they are 8,5 et44 so they need 10/15mm spacers in front.
at the rear, the lips are currently on a process to be "widened" (not sure how to say)...there are no lips for these rims, they are one piece alluminium barrel+lip, so it has to be done a custome work. next wheek I should have pictures to show you all.
kreepin, thanks, this time I have no wheels to sell. about my headlights, I have the oem non xenon ones..not sure about depo's quality or other brands on mercedes..
