This might just be the best C I've ever seen on here. Beautiful. C63 headlights would really set it off. What are the specs of the wheels?

Those are the wheels I am going to get.. I saw them last year, someone please photoshop STEEL GREY with those wheels on in that color. gunmetal. Thats my car color and I think that would look sexy, steel grey murdered out.

Thanks

Also, without lowering there is no rubbing and no spacers needed right? (with your set up above)

Thanks

Another person on this form has these wheels in the normal color. That car looked nice as well.

Congrats on having one of the nicest C's ever.

I think C63 headlights would definitely do you some good.

What did you do with the holes in the bumper when you removed the plate holder?

IMHO 19s look too big on a W204...I'd much rather go with 18s...but nice car nonetheless

My fear with 19's is that our brakes start to look small. In my 17" wheels they barely fit. If I go 19's, I'll probably do something less open.

efx1 - nice ride. I really like the style of those rims. I've wondered what they would look like powdercoated black, now I know! The red calipers pop.

Which springs are those? SuperSports? Looks like an aggressive drop, especially if they haven't settled yet.

Do you have any close ups of the wheels and calipers?

nice few questions
what year is the car. I just ordered those wheels and going with a satin black. should I have done flat.
Also I was told on the 2009 you can go 275 in the rear and 245 in the front. I have an 08. Can I go that wide ?
