C55 W203 owners with forged rims , need your comments please ?

I am tempted to replace the stock to lighter forged , keep 18" . Would like actually C55 user experience of any improvements. thx
I prefer experiences of those who did not alter the stock suspension nor the rims size.

Great, actually , I been using Rays rims for my E90 330i. The first set was the G-Games 99B 19", the currrent set is the VOLK ME 19". Recently, I always been thinking about forged for my C55 but never had any luck to pick up anything off the shelf like I did for the E90. Now, I am dreaming about new rims again. I have been struggling about downgrade the E90's 19" to 18" for better twisty performance. RE-30 seems the best candidate.

Now you have reminded me about Rays for C55, I have just checked the site and it seems RE-30 offers 35 offset for BMW and C-Class! I need to study more because on the list, they have 8" 35et for C-class. What I really need is 7.5 front and 8.5 rear. As read on the list, they also have 35et for these.

Appended the list of size and offsets offerings of RE-30 for non Japanese cars. May be someone can advise which one should I choose for C55 for 225, 255 , 18" tires?

If no luck, I will wait for the W204 rims as attached

W204 rims are Brabus Mono VI ripoffs.
