20s are way too small and on a car like this you need some lip

I would never go over 19's and that needs to be in a forged wheel. 20" and above have way to many problems with bent wheels and flat tires.

First aftermarket wheels that I like. A lot.
Wheels, in my view should accompany the car, as a nice buttons to a nice shirt (eg, Zegna). Never vice-versa.
Never to draw attention to the wheel itself. Mistake, which so many buyers make.

I agree with SL2003driver, not going over 19", unless certain parts of West Coast we are talking about.
If not for MB's additional insurance on the wheels/tires, I'd cry every 1-2 months, when I have to replace them.
Btw, I'm going for an appt. on Monday to replace bubbed tire with bent rim (over $1000 occurrence)
