19" aftermarket rims warranty?
Please help,

I've been looking around for an aftermarket rims, the great looking rims are on the 19".

If I go for the 19" instead of my stock 17" will I void my warranty? My car c300 is certified and I purchased the extra 2 years. If it does not void the warranty can you please guide me to none staggerred. Wheel size, offsett and tire sizes that would be considered to be within warranty..

Thank you in advance.

Thanks 2012c250. So what is your set up?
Did you do 19x8 all around or staggered?

And what size tires did you get with the rims?

Slight rub? Did you lower your car or still using the stock sport suspension?
