Any 18" Wheel For The W204

I was looking for some 18" staggered wheels for the 08 C300 4Matic. Been searching since May and found less than 5. I was thinking 19" but I am afraid they will rub and where I live the roads are not that great.

i shot you a PM back...

The choices are pretty limited when it comes to 18" for the C-Class. In 19", unless your car is extremely low, you will not have a problem with rubbing if you go with a wheel made for your W204.

Hope this helps, Feel free to contact me if you have any further questions

What kind of offset is optimal to avoid rubbing? ET40-50?

When I wanted to get a W204 I was definitely considering the OZ Superturismo GT

yes, rim selection is pretty limited with these funky offsets.

For 19" or 20" rims, I would suggest ET 45 at least to avoid hassles..

I looked at those too. I love the multi-spoke rims (remind me of the 19" AMG rims on the C63). I wish they didn't have the brand all over though.
That's why I am looking at these RH rims.

GMP said they have MB center caps for them (around $60).
They have a good assortment of rims for the W204 (not many 18's)

19's don't usually have a problem rubbing (keep the rear width under 10"). Wide width 20's are the problem.
