I have a stock '10 c300 4m in Palladium. I'm torn as to what wheels to put on. I want to generate a mildly fact factory look in a 19" staggered size. My suspension is factory and I expect it to stay that way. So help me determine the finish and style. Let me be the Palladium guinea pig. Ideas?

Terrible ipad pic from 100 feet away for reference. They have the stock 17" sport (?) wheels. And I guess it's upside down....

Look at the ST180 wheels they come in 18" and 19"

Those look nice, very similar to these gunmetal e63 reps I found on eBay.

I also really like the y-spoke or cls style. I think either a silver or gunmetal gray is the right look.

How goofy do 19s without drop springs actually look? I'm also a bit concerned for ride quality. Maybe 18s are a better option.

Struggling with the image upload..

I'm actually considering the 18 inch ST180's for my C300. I currently have the factory 17 inch wheels. I just want to make sure I do everything right when installing the wheels.

These wheels from Powerwheelspro.com work beautifully for Palladium, as the gun metal inserts are a great match! I got 17" but they come in larger sizes as well. They also have other styles, but these have the bodycolor inserts.

Very nice! What did you do to achieve the color-matched grille and rear diffuser? Seems you have a theme going. Those look great.

The deck spoiler was purchased in Palladium. The roof spoiler, grille, and mud flaps were bought in black plastic; the diffuser is carbon fiber; the tail lamp trim was chrome. All were prepped and painted at a local indy's body shop. When the wheels arrived, I was very pleased at how well they matched the Palladium paint. Yes, I like the monochromatic theme and Palladium is a great color for showing bodyshapes!

BTW, I am leaving my Eibach antisway bars red and Bilstein B6s yellow/blue!

I am planning on getting these same rims ( also in 17inch). What was the offset on them and did you have any issues with fitment ?

ET44...... Kept the staggered tires on four same size 17x8 rims as 17x8.5 were not in stock at the time. No issues over several years.

I have these in my cart and waiting to hear back from them with tire options. If I don't like them I will have a set put on at my local shop. What do you think? I am going with 18X8.5.

Nice pick, Tell me how it goes I'll also be moving up to 18 inch in the near future.
