Wheel advice

Which of these 19" rims do you think will look good on my CLK?
Will 265 in the rear and 235 in front fit without any modification to the suspensions or a need to get spacers?
I have the rims in 18" in the 4th pic.

I would go with one of the first 2. The tires sizes you want to go with will fit fine. What you have to worry about is the offset of the wheels. That will determine if you need spacers or not.

I have thought about it but I don't feel it, black rims on a silver car(hint to Wes to go back to his amg reps ) silver is a great maintenance color but not as mod friendly as black or white.
