Hello forum, my name is mike and I'm pretty new to the MB game. Ive had a few cars (I had a 2005 Sti and a 2010 Evo X). Well the mb is a totally different ride comfort and swag wise lol. So i purchased a 2011 C300 last week and I'm looking to get new wheels that will fit my 17 Inch tires. I really don't want to go with bigger wheels cause i don't want to sacrifice the ride smoothness. Any suggestions for Some nice 17's? Thanks in advance and please pardon me in the future if more questions pop up from me.

Do you have these 17" rims on your car now? If not, I think they are some of the best looking 17 inch factory wheels I have ever had or seen. Good option and many sell them to upgrade...good luck and welcome.

Welcome to the forum.
There are relatively few choices in a 17" wheel but some of our members have found a few nice ones. Power Wheels Pro comes to mind for a couple inexpensive choices.
