I figured since the c300 is kind of difficult to figure out wheel specs and tire size because of the high offset it needs that we could get a centrally located thread that has pictures of the c300 that gives size offset height of car etc.

1. Rim size (if staggered list both)
2. Tire size (if staggered list both)
3. Offset (if staggered list both)
4. Stock height or lowered (if lowered on what and approx drop)
5.Rubbing?
6. Make and model of rim.

Thanks hopefully we can be positive and informative here.

NO BASHING! Strictly for informative purposes some of us might not have the same style as someone else and that's fine let it be.

i can say 19" on a stock c300 sport rub on bumps
42-54 is the offset range we should be looking for

when i get my rims hopefully this week ill post a picture! I went with 18's 8.5 front 9.5 rear 45 offset and ill post the tire size and info as well.

FknBoss

Nice I like those.

If your looking a "cheap" way to lower/ stance your car. I would recommend getting spacers. I have a 08 luxury and with 10mm front 20mm rear; my wheels are just about flush with the fender. I'm running stock 17" right now.

I don't see how 19's rub on stock... I ran 20's on my 2008 c300 never had any rubs. And on my 2013 c250 now I have 19's with coilovers all the way down it only rubs the rear passenger side on decent bumps. I'm running 255/30/19 in the rear

The 19s probably rubbed due to wrong offset.

I just got new wheels over the weekend. This thread helped teach me a LOT in determining safe offsets and tires for my C300 sport, or any W204.

I ended up going with Verde Parallax wheels 19x8.5 (+45) all around (unfortunately they don't make staggered, but it still looks good to me), and Hankook Ventus V12 Evo F 235/35 and R 265/30. No lowering. Haven't noticed any rubbing at all.

FknBoss

Wow they look awesome. So jealous of all the white cars.

Is that the oem lip trunk spoiler? I'm so close to pulling the trigger and painting my car white. The iridium silver is gorgeous on my 2011 but man white looks so good.

FknBoss

Vinyl wrap it. Cheaper doesn't ruin resale like a repainted car does and protects the paint while on. Win win win.

I think this thread will with a lot of wheel questions, especially if everyone fills out this form and user can just search the thread for sizes/offsets. (Maybe in the "form", request users to post a photo of the car with the current setup, puts a photo to the numbers).

1. Rim size: 17'
2. Tire size: 225/45/R17
3. Offset: Stock (but spacers installed 10mm Front 20mm Rear
4. Stock height or lowered: Lowered on H&R Super Sports + 5mm rear spring pad
5. Rubbing? No
6. Make and model of rim: OEM 17" Luxury rims

I'm going to plastidip it when i finally add a few more pieces like front lip, lip spoiler, diffuser, quad tip exhausts.

FknBoss

Dipped just looks so cheap in my opinion. I haven't seen a decent looking one that I thought "wow that looks good"

FknBoss

Spacers make a big difference. @ickdeep

FuMMoD

You haven't seen good quality dip then. Good dips are better than vinyl wraps and offer an insane variety of colors and textures.

FknBoss

I wouldn't say they are better then vinyl. Plastidipp doesn't have a 7 year warranty. My buddy did his car in white. 1 winter and the Plastidipp was yellowish.

But were getting off topic lol

boardrider

Not OEM spoiler. I got it off ebay actually. Was about $110. Installed it with heavy duty indoor/outdoor 3M tape (came with) and silicone sealant. Been on a year so far; haven't had any issues and still feels solid. Looks way better IMO with the spoiler.

FknBoss

That is hopefully the plan because thus car is a PITA to get a perfect wheel set.
