Vossens Installed, but we have a problem :(
Just got my 20 Inch Vossen CVTs in Bronze put on the C63, couldn't be happier! I love the way the black and bronze go together, and Vossen and Mercedes is just a classic combo IMO. However, im having rubbing issues. Im planning on just getting my fenders rolled alittle to clear it . I cant put it on springs as of right now so that will do for now. Let me know your thoughts!

There's not much to roll on the back of our cars. You may have to pull them and repaint the quarters depending on how much room you need.

I love the CVTs and was planning on getting them in 19's, but the directional design kind of worried me. I was thinking about how they would differ front to rear and side to side and about how (if I ever had to) swap wheels side to side how the design would change.
It's a moot point really but whatever. They look good.
As mentioned above, not much fender to roll.
Tire brand sidewall difference might help the best. Ex. Contis are rounder than MPSS.

I personally would have gone with 19", and your rubbing issues would be non-existent.

Everybody likes to go with 20", but I think that 20" are overkill for this car. I have 19" on my E63, because of the larger circumference wheels, the thinner the sidewall of the tire.
And my E63 isn't light, so potholes can be an issue for bent wheels. But we all have different likes and dislikes. So I don't fault you.

About the only tire that really fits the W204 platform in 20" on a 20x10R is 275/25ZR20 is the Nitto Invo, they also have a 285/25ZR20

Why did you even buy those in the first place? Your CV1's are better
