Recommended wheel and low profile tires for...
Guys,
I am interested in putting some new rims and low profile tires on my 2002 C230 coupe. Can anyone please give me the best way to go as far as sizes?
I don't want it to look too crazy or anything, but also don't want the tire to look too small for the wheel well either. I have factory brakes etc.
Any thoughts?
Best,
Paul h.

go with 19's.....you can go with 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear with Ventus Hancook tires 235/35/19 in the front and 265/35/19 in the rear. YOu should not have any problem with this set up. No rubbing or anything.
Take a look below of my 19's with this similar set up.
