Need advice on wheel size! HELP!!

I know this topic has been beat to hell, but I was planning on ordering a set of 19" staggered wheels for my CLK 320 and need to know what tires size, wheel size and offset to get so I dont get too much or no rubbing. The car is lowered on H and R springs and Bilstein Sport shocks.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Sounds good.
What do you guys think about these wheels:

Please let me know if anyone has better deals on staggered mesh 19" wheels. I don't really want to spend more than $1900.

Thanks

I have those exact rims on my car, except I chose the silver colored ones. $1900 for a rim/tire package is too expensive.

You should contact CarLab motorsports for a better deal. They are a sponsor of this forum. Ask for Darwin...he'll hook you up =)
