Figured I'd post this for those of you considering wheel spacers. I went with 12mm all around - not huge, but enough to make a difference, and enough to get rid of almost all of the horizontal gap. Now all I need to do is get rid of the vertical gap!

This post will have the before pictures, next post will be the after pictures.

Yeah, they do make a difference. I had 20mm on the rear of my old C320 at one point. It was one of those things where an observer knew something was different put couldn't quite put their finger on it . These days I would probably go with 10mm all around..

Good Stuff!!
Can you take some pics from a distance?

When are you going to lower it and how low are you planning on going?

Sure, I'll try to get some up tomorrow. Planning to lower it sometime in the near future, probably with KW coilovers.

Looks much better! I always thought these funnel wheels looked great on w203s. Looks super stock, but just better!

I'm planning on doing the 12 mm for both the front and rear on the stock wheels. Did you notice any negative issues or rubbing from the spacers? Also did you end up lowering the car on coilovers?
