2009 W204 C200K AMG Package
Sorry for asking but i couldn't find anyone posting any pics with 18x8 ET45 setup all around. As i am planing to purchase BBS SR wheels with that setup. And am worried that it wont look that good.

Please advise

the front will be flush and rear will poke a little bit but not as much.
As far as the tires only one way to find out...try it

how about a staggered setup that you dont have to worry if it looks good or not.

Get the staggered then
AMG 18's or BBS SR both are good looking wheels IMO.

Hi Thanks for your reply

Im kind of a noob when it comes to the term "flush" and "poke".
But dos "Flush" mean that its aligned in a straight with the fender?

And "poke" is just outside the fender, do you have any ideer how much?

For the tire my plan is 225/40 for the front, but for the rear Im not sure
if it would be best to go down a size from 255/35 to 245/35?

You are correct sir. I say your rear wheels will poke maybe 7mm or less?....just my "guess-timate".

I run 18x9.5 ET36 for the rear its about 10-15mm outside the fender .
I will take a picture when i get a chance so you can see it.

Hello,

I am looking into getting a set of XO wheels http://www.xowheels.com/wheels/Tokyo for my 2012 facelifted C300 4matic sport. 20x8.5 F and 20x10 R. I am not sure what offset I need.

I found an ebay listing that claims to fit w204 http://www.ebay.com/itm/20-XO-TOKYO-BRUSHED-SILVER-DEEP-CONCAVE-WHEELS-RIMS-FITS-BENZ-W204-C250-C350-/201031457113?pt=Motors_Car_Truck_Parts_Accessories&hash=item2ece689959&vxp=mtr
Will this work? 42 front and 45 rear.

Will a 19x9.5 +44 fit in the rear? I'll be dropped on H&R Super Sports. I'm wondering what's the widest tire I can fit without rubbing. Thanks!

Thanks for the input. I see everyone here running 30 series tires, so I'm wondering if 35 would cause problems? But like you said, it depends on the brand. I'd prefer to get a 35 series tires for a little added comfort.

Would 19x9.5 +44 w/ 255/30 be my safest bet? Or would 255/35 work just as well?

that's really up to you. I ran 255-35-19 before with H&R SS springs and never had any problem....unless ofcourse you have 300lbs sexy chick sitting in the back seat

30 series is too thin IMO

What kinda offset was your rear rim when you were running that size tire?

I have XO's on my car (Berlin's) +44 in the front and +55 in the rears. No plans to lower it but I don't think the front would lower with my offset.

The price of that listing is 3 times what I paid for my wheels, shop around.

2010 C300 sport sedan
Test fit some wheels off my boss's mom's CLS

20"x9" fronts et+30 255 tire size
20"x10" rears et+30 295 tire size (wideness)

car is lowered with H&R super sport springs...fitment is real aggressive in the rear, but my biggest concern is clearing the front struts

..might have to shave down the backing plate a few mm, but that will bring the wheel in more and then might start hitting suspension components

...anyone tried this fitment before, getting an unreal deal on them, but want to make sure this will work!
