wheel question
I know nothing about wheels other than I know what look i want. I'm looking for a 18 or 19 inch rim and hoping to get that wheel fender flush look. so im not sure a 9.5 wide rim will cut it I was thinking 10 inch to 10.5 inch wide in the back. Whats the most aggressive wheel size and offset i can use in my C55? For that matter im not sure even what offset mean... then on top of that i want the wheels and tires to be lighter than stock. if thats not asking to much. thanks guys I know ive been posting alot just got a lot of questions on my car.

white and whiter
19x10 et35 with 265/30/19 tires.
lighter than stock = forged wheels.
offset is the distance from the center of the wheel (center of the width) to the back of the wheel hub. larger the number the closer the spokes are to the hub on the car.
