20 inch tires for a w204 are rubberbands. 225/30-20... (approx 2.6 inch sidewall) and thats not alot of rim protection. So make sure the wheels are really cheap so when you bend them it wont cost you an arm or leg to replace one or two.

This is my brother-in-laws ride, i myself am a bmw guy but his w204 is a beautiful ride, agressive body kit so i thought this wheel compliments the kit???
this is the second choice which i think looks good but they told us they do not make it for the car yet??

who pays ur car payment?? other's opinon shouldn't be a factor on u deciding how to spend ur money, if u want 20s then, DO THE DAMN THING!, I think they hott by the way, What brand are they??? Oh, make sure they 20x8.5 all the way around, i had 9.5 in the rear and the offset was wrong, so I would bottom out when i hit bumps, but now Im straight, with 8.5.

I like the design of the first wheel, but is that black paint in the spokes? If so, that's a no-go. ehh... I like all silver better with that design. 
All black is a different story, I guess.
The second wheel looks nice though. No chrome!
I like the look and stance of 20"s with a slight drop, but... yes... I don't want to be replacing wheels left and right, what with the rather crappy road conditions around here where I live.

there is a noticable difference between my stock 17" and my 19" wheels. the 19" ride is ok but I can feel a lot more road... the noise is definately louder... i wonder how 20" would be... comfort wise.

2008 C-300/ 19' maya MRS black wheels H@R Springs//powerchipped//Brabus Trunk spoiler//HID Fogs//
.
the first wheels are sick but 20's are soo big youll be replacing tires so much and if you hit a pothole that **** will bend so easily....do those wheels in a 19' and get some H@R springs, drop it and it will stunt.....cuz thats what i did

i like the look of 20"s but not too sure about the practically... your car will be slower w/ the 20"s due to weight & just the face that the diameter of the wheel/tire is bigger. Your odometer will also be further off than 19" which is already about 3mph off.
