I've been looking into buying these rims:

I'm leaning more towards 18x9.5 all around, and I'm looking towards an aggressive fitment.

I'm on stock suspension as of right now because of tuition fee's, but I should get my coils within the next couple of months. *fingers crossed
I was just wondering what kind of offset I should run on them. Also, when I get the coils, will I have to do body work in order for it to not rub?

nice rims! to run flush in the rear probably around 245 or 250 widths and 225 in the front

EDIT: 9.5 might be alittle wide in the front you might need 235 width

according to my mercedes wheel catalogue Apr 2007

For the W203 18" AMG wheels

F 7.5" 37 offset 225/40
R 8.5" 30 offset 245/35

I think that you are going to have issues running 9.5" on the front

For 18"ers you will have roll the fenders

So do you think if I do 8.5 in fronts, 9.5 in backs, +30 will work in the front? Also, could I add spacers? I read some forums and threads saying that I can't. I want the tires to sit flush with the car when I do the drop. I'm pretty new to MB, so any advice helps! Thanks guys

I am not sure if 8.5 will work on the front. All of the option sizes are 7.5 / 8.5 even for the C32 and C55. If you are trying to get that stance look then I am not your man I am only going what OEM says and if your car is a 4matic then you will have other issues for clearance and you can't run staggard.

My setup stock staggard with 17" and OEM rims does sit flush and not like the stock 16" which look too far inset

I just have a base c240, and thanks for the info! I was looking into some oem wheels, but nothing really stands out to me I guess haha.

Anyone have any luck running wheels as wide as 9.5?

Manufacturers have gotten back to me!
18x8.5 +32 Front
18x9.5 +35 Back
Should fit flush, thanks for all the help guys!

Those offset won't fit flush

I'm about to order new lips and do 9.5 front and 10.5 rear... gotta get ready for wekfest Austin

MCRF

Phister you know what tires size and offset I should go?
I'd love to see update pics when you throw em on if you can man!

phister

18x8.5 +25 225/40/18 front
18x9.5 +30 255/35/18 rear

that'll let it sit flush without rolling the fenders.

Thinking of going 11" in rear

Daaaaamn that's gonna look sick. Would it change for 19s ?? I wanna run 19 on mine 9.5 all around to be able to get some nice concave on the euromag em10 wheels. Would that work??

You're gonna have to pull a lot in front not to rub and clear stuff with 9.5. I'm gonna have to pull more when I do 9.5 in front and my 9 already poke out...
