Would be willing to drive down to Seattle to get them. Good excuse to take some time off. Too bad it's way out in Cali.

All-Seasons aren't capable of maneuvering around smallers streets and hills. I got stuck last Xmas.
Off topic, how did you get the blue leds for your eyelids? What's the part number? Looks great.

Those are actually not as blue as they are in reality. It is sort of cool white.
I replaced them with Polarg M4 bulbs which you can find in ebay.

'09 C350
C350 Silver, I just bought a 09 C350 last week with the 18" AMG wheels. I would like to get the C63 wheels. Are you still looking. I live in the Seattle area. Peter.

So it looks like the winter tires of choice based on comfort and value are the Michelin Pilot Alpin's 225/45 R17 on all 4 wheels. Under Mercedes' service department's advice, winter tires should not be staggered. The wider the tire, the less traction there is. It's Vancouver winter...unpredictable. When it does fall, the snow may not be as heavy as that of the Alberta or Toronto.
The only thing left to do is to find 17" rims and the C300 stock rims will do. Any sellers?

Yes, you're correct. All 4 wheels should be the same size. I'm trying to find the stock C300 rims for the winter. If I can't find a set, then I'll just opt for a set of non-OEM rims instead.

don't worry too much about putting staggered wheels for winter tires. yes, there is less traction with wider tires, but it's not like night and day.
