Wheel and tire question.

Hey guys,
I have a 2000 C280 and I want to get new wheels and tires. Whats the best setup in a 18'? I would like to go staggered, and I really like the AMG wheel type. Just wanted to get a little info before I start shopping.

Thanks in advance.

18x8 and 18x9 or 18x8.5 and 18x9.5 Keep your offsets around 31-38. Tires 225/40/18 and 255/35/18

Hope that helps

Is there a Aero II Monoblock wheel in this size that will fit my C280? I really like that wheel.

Well I think I found the wheels I want. They sparked my interest better then the Monoblock. My question is do you guys think they will fit? And is this a good company to buy from?

Are they asking $499 for all 4 wheels?! I've never heard of them, but you may want to do some web searching to find out more about the company.

I did do some checking on this company. There Ebayers. And they have a internet company. There wheels are made in China and in Germany, all depends on what wheel....the one I want is made in Germany (I think).There really popular with the Mustang and Corvette crowd, they swear buy them. There Ebay customer comments are really good. A few bad one (bent rims from shipping and that kinda stuff) I think ill give them a try. Ill let you guys know what I find. What the hell.....its only money....

What do you guys think should be a good replacement for the Pirelli P Zeros that come with the C63? We are all having troubles with the Pirelli P Zeros lasting only a couple of thousand miles.
