I actually decided with 18 monoblocks with bridgestone potenzas. I came to the conclusion that the carlsson 2/5 look better on the new c class body than the old body of the 43. Mono's look awesome on the car. ill get some pics up soon when i figure out how to get them from computer to internet. Im pretty computer dumb!!

ya, that's what my fear was that 2/5's wouldn't look as good on the W202 as the W203 body

can't go wrong with AMG Mono's

Check out eh new style Carlsson 2/6 brilliant editions, I have them on order for my W124, they'd look huge on a W202!

Blocky big rims look better on our gen of cars

New rims

I just purchased the Carlsson 2/5 18" rims for my C43 to replace the Carlsson 1/6 rims. As soon as I get them mounted on my vehicle, I'll post some pictures. I like the look of the 2/5 rims a lot better than the 1/6 rims which came with my car when I purchased it last month. Also, I will be selling the Carlsson 1/6 rims soon (they are only 4 months old).

also depends on the color of the car (black car would look diff than on silver car)

My exact thoughts. I can't choose. I can definetly get the MonoII for less but they weight more, then I think I want the car to look diff than all other 43's so get different rims ( means $$$$$ up the wazoo)

PICS PLEASE.
