This is what I have...20’s
I know you prefer 19’s but this is what I have. 20’s!
Can people please start posting more pictures and specs of wheels. I am looking at 18's vs 19's. I am looking to run the lowest offset as possibly ( mid to low 40's) and probrably around 8.5-9 inch wide. Also I am creeping on the H&R supersports right now. Show me what you have!!

Did it anyway
Despite nobody offering help, I did it anyway,
I suspect just cause they weren't some stance or rotiform alloys on a slammed motor, nobody found it interesting to even respond.
It turns out the wheels I found were ET48 all round and had the concave rear (nice bonus), they fit without issues whatsoever on stock sport springs and are nice and flush with arches. 225/35/19 on front, 245/35/19 on rear.
Now need to drop it a touch and I'll be happy, cars filthy from UK salty winter roads so none for the moment.
Hope this helps someone at least

Wheel find
I’m having a lot of trouble tryin to find these wheels. In my opinion, they fit the car great and I’d wanna buy a set but i have yet to find that specific wheel. Please help. If all fails, atleast an educated guess on the diameter of these wheels, 19 or maybe 20?

The wheels are Ispiri isr8. Diameter I’d have to say most likely 19”. I dont know what set up to run with the c class(offset, width, ect.) that information would be great.

Will it work???
I was in the market for some wheels and came across these in the link below. I was wondering will I have any issues with a 225/35/19 in front and a 255/30/19 in the rear? Is possible to run a 275/30/19 with a stock suspension setup? please let me know whats the max I can run with this wheel setup thanks.

Newby- W204 Opinion request #2
Greeting all, My first forum post. Been looking around here for an hour and still not clear if I'm posting in the the right place. Apologies if I not and plz point me in the right direction.
Requesting opinions on these 2015 19" X 7.5"/8.5" w205 wheels/tires I just piked up for my w204 (see below pics).
Some local kid bought them for his CLK 550, but offset didn't work. He agreed to allowed me to test mount on our '08 c300 Sport project. They cleared the front strut with 8mm non-hubcentric spacers; rears seemed to clear, no spacers needed. Everyone I've asked so far say they look great, but most of them drive BMWs or Lexus's...so what do they know. Ergo, I'm here seeking sophisticated opinions. I think they look ok, but suspect I'd like them a lot better if the car was lowered a bit. That means spending another $600.00+ for shocks and springs. The car still drives and rides remarkably well, but I suspect new struts prob in the cards soon, as the originals shocks have 156k miles. I'm thinking Bilstein B4s and Eibach Pro-Line springs. But if I lower, I'm, worried I'll have clearance issues and considerably harsher ride (19s + stiffer springs). Current tires are 225/40R-19, 255/35R-19; offset is 44f / 52r. Wondering if anyone has experience with this size rim/tire or similar suspension mods. Also a couple of questions: will the speedo accuracy suffer bady with 19" ; will the TPMs need to be changed from W205 back to W204? The Whhel calulated on this site says I need to Extend front 3mm and extract rear 6.5mm? Not sure what extends means. the rears seem to clear; is this tool reliable? Thoughts, opinions, suggestions feedback - all much appreciated. Thanks. Fabo

I have the same 2015 wheels and they do bolt on my 2008 C300 sport. Spacers were needed as the tire is too tall (top of the tire hits the strut spring housing). The rim width I have is 7.5" X19", tire size is 225/40/19. I'm going to try 235/35/19s and 245/30/19s; I hope one of these will work with no spacers. Will post results here in about a week.

W204 OEM 19" wheels update
Guys, want to update my previous thread regarding running W205 19" wheels on my 2008 W204: upgraded from OEM 17s to 7.5" front/ 8.5" rear x 19s"; offset front is 44, rear is 52; hub bores are 66.6mm; bolt pattern, radius, & length, are the same and the new wheels mount right up. I purchased used 2015 wheels with factory OEM rubber already mounted (Conti Extream SSR runflats); Front were 225/40/19, rears 255/35/19". My car is 2WD with sport suspension & stock ride height. The rear 19s & OEM tires fit perfectly with, no clearance or rubbing issues; Front tires were too tall, although I think I could have added 10mm spacers and run them, but opted to replace tires with lower profile 225/35/19s and they then bolted right up, no rubbing or clearance issues after 300 miles of Bay Area City driving. Speed-o is 1 MPH optimistic when compared to my Waze Navi App. Running the tire pressures recommend by the tire shop which is 40psi frt/rear. Ride quality is a noticeably harsher and nosier. I suspect the noise is attributable to lower tire profiles AND runflat technology. Also my engine mounts are collapsed, so that maybe contributing. Will play with tire pressures before I replace the mounts.
I just purchased new Bilstein B4 shocks and going with Eibach "ProLine" springs front back and changing to stock 10mm rear shock shims to optional 4mm shims, so I'm told will lower the car approx 1-1.2 inches. Will update again after these. Actually the rear shocks are on back-order, so thinking of going with the SACHs OEM replacements. I am quite happy with the stock shocks in terms of ride quality and with 156k miles on the stock shocks, I think their quality speaks for itself. If anyone has an opinion on Bilstien B4 verse MBZ/Sachs, pros-cons, I'd appreciate the feedback.

Help needed
Hello all! First let me introduce myself as i am new at this forum. My name is Marco and living in the Netherlands. My car is a C180 CGI 2010 W204. Love the car. Excellent drive and a beauty to the eye. Currently i am running stock wheels.
225/45/17 ET 47 and 7,5J all around.
I am planning to go on 19 inch. The wheels i have in mind comes in:
Option 1
8J 19 inch ET 45 all around.
With this option i would run 235/35/19 i guess.
Option 2
8J front ET 45
9J rear ET 48
with this option planning to go on 225/35/19 front and 255/30/19 in the rear.
My question is: Will these options fit without rubbing? Dont want to roll fenders or lowering the car.
Think i prefer option 2 if these will fit?
Please give me your advise!

Simple question yet only one other person in this thread has done it, so i want to clarify with those that know a lot about tires/wheels. I want to know if this will work (no rubbing, etc) assuming stock tires are kept from a staggered C300 4matic sport.
Tires:
225/45/17 STOCK
245/40/17 STOCK
Wheels:
17x8.0 ET 35 all around

The website shows me the differences, but i don't know what to make of it. Simple question for the pros to help a newbie out (i did search the thread, but most are on 18" or 19" and i'm over here trying to stick to 17" with stock tires, so help me out!)
Thanks for any advice!
