Acceptable Offsets
We know the C class can handle offsets between 40 and 50...but what offsets look the best?
People on here have been slapping on 19s and 20s and the usual response is "doesn't look right" or "looks like it'll" rub" or "doesn't fit". I think the overall message is that the fitment just doesn't work. So what does work? If you want to run the big wheels, what offsets should you be running?
Keep in mind some people like to run low offsets to get that Euro/VIP look.

Probably in the minority, but I actually dig VIP style........when done right. They don't all have to have crazy negative offsets to pull off the look.
