So what you guys think, Im hesitant to go with 19's afraid of degraded performance. But than again I didnt buy my MB for performance.

Very nice wheel. Only negative is that they will be vulnerable to curb rash. Care required. That should not stop you!

Great looking wheels, similiar to the optional AMGs.
Being an expensive, forged, two-piece wheel, I am assuming they are pretty light and pretty strong. Did you ask about the weight?

Im going to contact them today, Im about to pull the trigger on these. I just debating how horrible the ride quality will be with 19"s. I just dont want to go back to the days of when I was into lowered ricers.

Just saw this thread 
Weights will be in the low 20 lbs range since they are 2 piece forged, the rears will be pretty concave, fronts will be a flat face. Since the wheels are lighter than regular 19" cast wheels, the ride will be fine.
Send us a PM when you get the chance !

I would not go back to 18", and not to scare you off, but care does have to be taken or else this is the result. 60mph on the freeway and sank into a not so deep pothole (wasn't a major crater) that was left by construction work.
This is an OZ Racing wheel w/ 235/35/19 rubber. Luckily it was able to be straightened back w/ no vibration felt now.

Not really. Weight certainly higer than stock 17 setup, but not anything crazy as to notice on the road. Grip/handling much better, naturally, so a positive increase in performance in that regard.

a properly setup up W204 rides nice w 19's, tire choice plays a huge role in this, especially as u go with a lower profile. I love the look of those wheels, but a 4k a set u can do similar for less money.
