Luke: Tire Size Question...

Hi Luke,

Sorry if this isn't the normal type of question that you answer, but I'm thinking of getting 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 wheels for my 2005 C230 Sport Sedan... I wanted to do some research and a comparison on what tires to buy for it. What are my available options in terms of the size? I can then look it up on tirerack and then probably compare and then order them from you...

Thanks!

Phil, How did that tire size work out for you? I am thining about ordering some rims the same size and offset. Do you have any problems with your rims rubbing on the front?
