My god theres like a sliver of rubber around those things.
I can't imagine how long 20" rims would last in NYC.
If you have to swerve to miss every little pot hole how is that extra measly inch worth it??
Sometimes I just don't understand you guys.

Again, though, the wheel design if freakin bee-YOO-tiful. The last picture is just yumyum. I've always liked ART Tuning products...

Not feelin' the chrome 20s below, mostly because I'm trying to get rid of the chrome already on the car, not add more. Of course, the Brabus looks badass, as usual. They even look to be the right size for the car. I don't understand.

Perfect if all the roads you drive on are smooth as GLASS.

Beautiful rims. The design is just AWESOME. But it kinda looks too big (for my tastes), especially in the first pic. Looks like a toy car, almost. You just convinced me not to get 20s like I was planning on doing... Perhaps if you dropped the car just a tad?

Suspension and handling dynamics, on the other hand... the love for it never dies. And big wheels help in this department, yes?

I agree. 18's top, 19's are even too big but acceptable. With the 18's you won't lose performance and it'll still look amazing. I have 17's and they aren't bad but I want a little bigger. 20's just look like their too big for the C class and it looks kinda awkward in my opinion.

mmmm. Good point. Even though I've always been a follower of the "All go, no show" philosophy, as I get older I realize that I don't really care too much how fast the car goes.

first and foremost, like with everything, there is always opinon!
now with that said, before buying my 20s i researched, and if i see that BRABUS(authorized tuning company by MERCEDES) can put 20s on a C-Class, then I am willing to do the same, not just to improve the look, but also b cuz its possible, and doesn't damage the cars performance. if u choose not to then it's cool wit me, i just wanted 20s, so that's what i went with, and to be honest, glad many dont want to go that high, so dont have to worry about seeing someone else with the same wheels and/or size parked next to me at the WAL-MART parking lot

I see your point. Anything to set your car off from the gaggle of MBs rolling around Germany... While I was traveling in Germany, I remember seeing so many MB cars being used as taxis. That was kinda cool...

I was in Germany around Summer of 2001, when I backpacked through western Europe. I remember a bunch of late 90s model E-class taxis. I thought, "Wow... Germans are so RICH!"
But then I remembered that MBs are German cars.
But then again, Germans pay more for MBs than we do here in America. So what gives?
