Good choice 19z are perfect for our car. I got my cv3z as well waiting to get my car back from the dealer to slap them on

Nice wheels people! One thing I really don't like seeing are wheels that poke out further than the fender. Sometimes even if you have the edge of the tires or rims flush with the render because of the gap between the fender/tires and render profile it makes the wheels look like poking out. I think if you will have a wheel that is bigger than 18" on the W204 then have a offset more than 45 you should be lowering the car to remove that illusion unless you really want your car to have that poking-out look.

I really like the one above me or Vic has, I am looking to get maybe these:
https://n4sm.com/blog/ruff-r2-luxury...des-benz-c300/

Those look so sexy to me, and that is my color car, its hard to find color schemes to match/follow silver body.
What do you guys think? Can I get these by 19" and having regular tires or need a specila something?

I'm running 19s and for me it's the perfect size, but the tires get expensive when you have to replace them every 1.5 to 2 years.

The bigger the rim, the lower profile the tire for the most part and we all know low pros are not known to last long. I have staggered wide tires so they get pricey. I do wheel alignments every 3 months (I get the unlimited alignment package for 3 years) and the tires still wear out fast. It might just be me, but how often does everyone else need to change out their tires on their 19 s and 20s?
