Best looking 19' wheels on a white w204?

I bought these and can't wait to install them on my White 2013 sedan this spring. I like dark wheels on a light car (and vice-versa), however on a C63 which is a bit of a more refined hooligan I prefer the bare/diamond cut/silver lip vs all black to provide some definition between wheel and tire. Mercedes does this right.

The beauty of those wheels is that they are F&R 1/2" wider than w204 C63 wheels plus they are forged and slightly lighter.
The front offset is better @ ET38 and rear similar ET56.
I have these in Titanium finish on mine with 3mm spacer on rears for ET53.

Are they w205 C63S sedan wheels?

Is the wagon rear different to the sedan in terms of fender? Reason you used a spacer? tire model and size?

This is super subjective and really just up to you.
Myself personally - Classic silver Multi-Spoke 19's on a clean white C63 just look right to me.

I picked mine up with original Michelin SuperSports 265/35x19 ( not 30).
Ran the spacer for a more flush look.
Will probably stay with 35 series tires as they fill the well nicely and only change speedo by around 2% max.
So when speedo showing 60kph actually doing around 61-62.

Not sure why you would spend a bunch of money to get black wheels. You can't even tell what they look like unless you're 3ft away most of the time. Just paint some stock 19s black.

I was over black wheels before the fad even started. On a white car especially, the bright paint overblows the exposure (both on cameras and your eyes), and the detail of black wheels gets completely lost in a short distance.
I'm always a fan of silver wheels, it may be a little "plain" for some, but it's the only color that stands the test of time. It also pops on any car color. For the money, I'd go with one of the HRE FlowForm wheels in silver.

This is my thought exactly! I used to like the black wheels one a white car but like you said you can't really tell what they look like unless your up and close... Definitely going to go with a titanium/silver look. Although I do still want to black out my badges.. I still think a chrome delete looks nice on a white 507.

I'm a big fan of the white on black. I think it looks good on just about any vehicle. I have the Forgestar CF10's. But I definitely understand some folks' reservation about the black. They dont always show up great or have great detail.

Your car looks amazing and really beefy with the tires. What tire sizes are you running? Are you lowered? What are the offsets of the wheels? Did you get them straight from Vorsteiner? I like the P31 + 507 touch with the black decals. Was it difficult to put on? Apologies for all the questions, but thank you in advance if you are so inclined to answer.
Those Vorsteiner V-FF 108's are 18"x8.5" ET 45 and 18"x9.5" ET 46. They can be ordered through us here at Wheels Boutique. Send us a PM or call - 786 249 0127 ext. 2109.

I know this is a year old, but if you happen to see this I own a 2014 W204 and was in the market for these exact wheels. Thankfully, I stumbled across your pictures and they look fantastic (beautiful car by the way)! Is there any chance you good share the specs for the Rims/Tires?
245/35/19 and 275/30/19 tires

I like to stick with OEM, but these 19s are like cheese, prone to cracking and splitting. I just replaced two on my C204 2014 C63 which were beyond saving. I made them into coffee tables. Just make sure you have nice soft rubber tyres on (like PS4S) and not run flats!
The rims I have are factory Matt black with a diamond black edge. I switched mine to gloss black as I think they look better.
I did seem some lovely 507 close replicas on eBay, but not sure on quality.
