I have stock 17" wheels on 2013 c300 sport. Any issues going to 18"? wheel wells, speedo, mileage calibrations, etc. Thanks for any help. Also tire size requirements?

Going to an 18" wheel will not be a problem. Actually 18's are an option. Just make sure that you stay with a similar offset. The tire you use with the 18" wheels will have less sidewall so the overall diameter will be close to if not actually the same. Therefore there will be no need to recalibrate etc.

Stick with 45 offset then don't go beyond 8.5" for the front and 9" at the back or go square 8.5" all around. You won't have any rubbing with that setup. Don't go beyond 235/40 on the front if you go 8.5" with 45 offset or you will rub.

FYI I have 18x9.5+45 in the rear using stock tire dimensions (255/35-18) with no rub. Been riding this for 50k miles now. I can confirm rub on 265/35-18 using Michelin Pilot Super Sports though.
