Will this fit my 2009 c300?

Was planning on replacing my stock rims on my 2009 c300. I found this. Has anyone used them? Will this fit my car without using spacers? Was thinking of 17" so i can use my current tires or should i go 18"? Will 18" change the handling/driving? Thanks

18" over 17" is primarily a styling statement, if you are visually sensitive to 1" of diameter. The increase in an 18" wheel unsprung mass directionally results in slower acceleration, lower fuel economy, and longer braking distances. The reduced resulting tire sidewall deteriorates ride quality, but can improve steering responsiveness. How much difference matters or is noticed by you is a personal issue.
