19" wheels on a C180K?

Hey guys. I'm thinking of putting 19" wheels on my C180K. I thought it would be good to hear about your experiences when it comes to upgrading from the standard 17" wheels. Does it increase the noice level in the car alot? Will it be big changes when it comes to the driving comfort? Will fuel consumption increase noticeably? I'm guessing there are no problem for the wheels to fit without damaging other things nearby?

Had 19" on my C180K and now on my C180CGI.

There is some more noise, also depends on the tyres.
Driving comfort, i like it little stiffer, but not a big difference.


Fuell Consumption is a little bit more, but i dont care.

Looks 200% better

Thanks for your reply :-) You're probably right, the downs will easily be worth it because it looks so much better What do you think about these wheels? Thinking of ordering a set...
