20" is only good if you are a Shriner and are in a parade. Or if you are confused about the difference between break and brake.

C63

Performance wise I would go with 18's. 19's for more looks.

19 without a doubt. 20's look great but ride like crap and are prone to bending rims. 18's will be the best performer but look like crap and 19's give you overall best comfort, reliability and performance.

I've been debating this same issue forever as I plan on spending a pretty penny on wheels. This is the best response I've seen. Thanks LZH. 19's are a go.

i dont care about performance (relatively speaking the C63 is good enough for me on 18 or 19s)

So for me 19s - im running winter 18s right now and theyre too small.

20s dont make sense to me bc i dont like driving on rubber bands
