Damn 255 on 10"? Why not a 275/25, or 265/30? Looks good either way.

Needs more of a drop to pull off. There's only 2 w204 people I know of that have pulled off 20s nicely...one a C63 and one a c350.

Here's what I feel is the perfect height for 20s. Also, it's not just height, it's the tire sidewall that also plays into it and the level of stretch you put into it. You want slightly stretched tires to take away from some of the bezel bulkiness.

Wheels aren't concave at all due to our high rear offsets
