in my opinion yes 17s would be the minimum size you could get away with, big old discs on those 430, s. Would love to upgrade mine to that size if possible as mine is a e240 with lousy brakes for such a heavy car.

I have the same size rotors and 17s are the smallest that will fit. I need to get a bigger spare.
