Mercedes 19" wheels... what do ya rhink?
If I don't pick up this new set of c63 amg 19 spoke wheels, I was looking at these:

What do you guys think? Anyone running them? If so, post picks plz!

Which would you rather have? They would be going on my 08 c300 sport...

You might be able to pull those off if your car is completely murdered, but I'd go for the AMG wheels.

those wheels are 35mm offset if I remember correctly. depends on your setup on the car, 99% of the people with W204s cant run that offset.

Why wouldn't a 35mm offset work on a c300?

this is my car with 18x9.5 42mm already. Your going stick out another 7mm than me. Not going look right unless you stretch tires and use proper suspension.

u can run +35mm on a w204 if you have skinny tires and 225/255 w 18s or a 215/245 w a 19. thats alot of stretch tho........+45 to +50 is ideal for standard setups

Cheaper to replace bent rim (stock C300) or have it straightened?
