C300 Bolt Pattern?

Hey everyone, my baby is begging for some new shoes.
I need to know what the bolt pattern is on the C300 Sport.

Also, do you guys suppose 19s would be too big?
I was going to go with 18s most likely though, what offset should I be looking for on either size?



Thanks,
Ron

Both of these have been discussed. Bolt pattern and offset have been shown in PDFs. 19" wheels have also been looked at by several members. In the end what matters most is ACTUALLY your preferences when compared to others. GL.

5x112... 18" is too small if you plan on getting aftermarket rims. Go at least 19" or just stick with your stock rims.

Yeah. Love that wagon wheel look. They might weigh as much too.

Bolt pattern

I have a 2011 C300 now when they say offset that means that the rim sizes different from the front and the back and the bolt pattern is 5 x 112 this correct

No, that is not correct. Offset is the way the wheel is mounted in relation to the hub. If it is mounted in the center with half the wheel being towards the outside of the car and half the wheel being towards the inside of the car, it is zero Offset.

Greater distance from the mounting point to the outside of the wheel is negative offset.More distance from the mounting point to the inside of the wheel is positive offset Here is a link that explains it: http://www.wheelpros.com/page/offset-explained/9

What you asked about is a staggered set up where the front wheels would be one width and the rear wheels would be another width, but the diameter of the wheels would still be the same. Like if you wanted a wider tire on the rear.
