2008 c300 manual Obsidian Black on Black

another quick question. All the C300's I've seen (manual, sport and white) have staggered front to rear wheel ratios. The cdn brochure (I believe) states that the C300 4matic sport has staggered wheels also.....I've read in other forums that the same size wheel and tire "had" " to used for the AWD's. Did you notice if they were staggered or not ?

This is something new for MBs but the C300 sport 4matic does in fact have staggered wheels/tires. Not sure how they did it but they did.

W204 C300 4Matic, G35 coupe

First post here!

Just picked up C300 4matic in Barolo Red on Saturday. This had been on order since beginning of August.

The wheels are staggered 245/45/17 rears and 225/45/17 front. This sucks because I can't rotate them now.

Well many of us will not be able to rotate. Just make sure to keep the wheels true and in balance to prolong the life of the tires.

Congrats on the new car.

Hmmm...based on the brochure, they are staggered tires but the wheel sizes are the same on all 4 corners. The c300 luxury 4matic have same tire size on all 4 corners. Why?
