18" Monoblock's on W202 C43
I want to change my existing stock 17" wheels for 18" Monoblock's. What is the best way to go about this? Factory wheels? Aftermarkets? Tire sizes? My car is pretty low with Vogtland springs and number 1 and 2 spacers front and back. Any ideas or leads on wheels? I prefer new but would consider used if they are perfect and the price is right.

18x8 at 31 in front
18x9 at 35 in the back
front tires-225/40/18
rear tires-255/35/18
this car below is runing the setup above and its dropped on H&R springs and koni shocks
might be able to bring the rear wheels out a lil more with some spacers too

These show a 29 and 35 offset. Will that work vs 31 on the car above??
