New wheels and sizing
I currently have 18" wheels on my 2019 w205 C220D, I was thinking about upgrading to 19 but even 18" fill it up so I'm open to staying.
According to what I found online, I should stick with 19x7.5J ET44 front and 19x8.5J ET52 rear. It's almost impossible to find all these here. I've been looking a lot at used and new and I can't source the wheels with that exact width and offset. Usually they are not even staggered but when staggered they're usually from E class so 8.5 and 9.5 or so and ETs vary.
I've never really upgraded wheels on my car and don't have much experience here so not sure what to do. If I go wider should ET be higher or lower, can it even fit my car without spacers.. It's been annoying trying to figure this out recently. It's getting hot and I want to buy new summer tires and wheels to go with them, current ones are bit meh and will stay for winter with winter tires.

There’s a wheel fitment thread on here I believe
or ask a wheel vendor on here
I used wheel designers and James was great, I think john is the Benz guy now. But James will still respond to my questions

Those are nice, but I upgraded to 4 of the same, so not staggered anymore, 18", should have went 19" in hindsight and with the 2nd pic but oh well, felt they are too similar to my current ones
