For C Class owners with 20" wheels.....
This question is only for w204 owners with 20" wheels, I'm going to purchase new wheels and I'm getting mixed reviews on what size to go with, I like bigger (I had 22" on my lowered BMW650) 20" to be honest. I don't want to have major issues with rubbing (I don't mind slight). Is the rubbing under control and how rough did the ride get? also, will I be able to do the super sport springs drop?? Give me your honest opinion....

Are you trying to go with a custom wheel or just a 1piece wheel. With a custom made wheel pretty much anything is possible you just have to be willing to pay for it

I'm looking for a cheap 1 piece wheel. I spent $7k on my last set of Forgiato wheels. When I gave the car back I ate $4k on them when I sold them, big waste of money.... I saw a nice set of 1 piece wheels for around $2k

Good luck finding a 1 piece 20x8.5 wheel that clears your calipers and doesn't rub your fenders and gives you the look you want. If you have a C300 you'd have more choices but the C350 kills all of that.

just out of interest, what's the 300/350 differences that make rim fitment difficult?
