Obviously I had looked through the sticky "C32/55 picture thread" I just really wanted to see pics of stocker black wheels and anything black, deep-dish and staggered on a silver C32. Also what are the general accepted largest dimension wheels that can fit the C32 without affecting drivability?
Both width and diameter?
C_DirtyTwo: Exactly what Im looking for,your car is hawt. Id also like see pics of wheels where you can't see the rivets or maybe has a polished/chrome lip?

19 x 8.5" front w/235-35-19 and 19 x 9.5" w/265-35-19 is generally the largest you can go. Some people have gone larger, but I think some major customization is involved. And generally speaking as well, a 265 in the rear is going to afford you some rubbing in the rear with hard cornering or people back there.
For me, I had 19's before and I LOVED the look, however, I lost some performance and when I installed coilovers and lowered it, the ride was waaaaay to harsh and rubbed all too often, for me at least. So I went back to OEM. I kinda like now that my car doesn't stand out, total sleeper.
You should peruse this thread over in the regular W203 Forum:

I'm gonna be running 199 paint code on my stock rims for winter. It's a dark "sparkly" charcoal for winter rims. Ahh the benefits of having a fiancé who does fantastic paint work.
