I like this one but they are 19's and he's lowered on H&R Supersports Kleemann MS-11 wheels the owner is on this forum somewhere but When i saw them I liked the rims and I know you like the spoke look too

also lowering your car isn't expensive ( If i didn't have the 4 matic i would of done it already ) I'm not sure if you have it or not but when i got a quote from Barrie ON it was like 400$ for the H&R supersports then you can find a shop to install for pretty cheep if you pay cash hahaha

also mr.brightside gave me this link and I've been using it to shop for rims also http://www.getyourwheels.com but I'm still convinced I'm going to go with the mandrus rotec but damn every time i get a quote the price seems to go up LOL last year it was about 1700$ for the set now its at 500$ a rim damn canadian dollar !

^ I bought my wheels from them, it's basically the same company as Avant Garde Wheels, same address and everything. Most wheel companies have a wheel builder on their websites where you can view their designs on your car. This one is a good one http://www.nicheroadwheels.com/configurator.cfm#!lang=0 , they make nice wheels and are pretty affordable. You can choose the color of your car and also make it lowered to give you a better idea if you plan on lowering your car.

Thanks so much guys...allowing conversation and input makes this so much more beneficial than just searching google images...this was I get to know and ask about sizes and businesses, which are hopefully local
Cheers

20's...yikes
looks amazing, but maybe a little too much tire for me...I am a fan of the black or darker rim look on the white, especially with our glass roof...big decision as to go matte, or gloss though :/ I'm in Canada and looking for a reputable tire company that can give me this sort of look...I am thinking to stick with 18's though, as our roads can be quite brutal with all of our temperature change and such!

Im from canada as well - Toronto

I drive to and from work (suburbs to downtown toronto) and have had no issues. Just gotta watch how you drive.

i would def go for 19's over 18's ... i find 18's to small especially on the w204 ... but depends if you lower or not and how low you go

Excuse the crappy, dark image. 18" twin spoke AMGs from a C63. Lowered on Eibach springs. Bridgestone RE760 235/40F 265/35R. Of course, no fitment issues, no rubbing.

I was debating 18 vs 19, going through all the photos on the site etc. For me, I'm glad I just stuck w/ an upgraded OEM look. These are quite different from the upgraded 18" that are normally offered with the C300/C350. The C63 ones have a machine face with gun metal barrel, while the C300 18" are just a brilliant silver. This may or may not be common knowledge but just wanted to point that out.

I since removed the 3 piece spoiler for a normal one as well. It became a bit too much IMO

nice rims I just sold the same set! I would go 18's also but its hard to find what you want in 18's! again look at it this way do you want to buy new tires every year? if you get 19's id say good luck going past a year on them if you drive 15,000-20,000km a year. I mean i drive a ton so 2 summers is usually max on summer tires for me. Those 20's look damn good but damn thats a big rim I have a hard time seeing those not rubbing if you take a corner hard but they look really good.

ryan is your car a 4matic? i never asked or i just plain forgot

i wouldn't go above 18's Some of the older members who are very active PM'ed me and said be aware you might mess up the 4matic system if you go above what the manual says! I mean i wanted 19's but that scared me.... other members have 19's and no issues ...yet at least.

you can always black out your current rims with plastic dip for 50$ and its easy to do!
