1998 c250 estate.. my weekend car
Right im really happy at the progress of my little old w202 c250 estate but ive never been 100% sure on the black powder coated 18" Amgs ive got fitted, some days they look great but other days i feel they are too of an old style... i would like to stay with 18" but maybe have a larger lip on the rears.. cant decide if a silver /black mix would look good or maybe even go the full hog with exact colour coded white..!!
Any suggestions on whst style/colour would look good now i have the c43 kit fitted... i have my 40mm drop H&R shocks/springs ordered already too :)

Those wheels look great on a 202 , just not in black.

Get them done in bright silver with diamond cut lips and it will improve the look no end.
 
18"monoblocks only in Siver
 
they are as sick as a trip to lourdes

silver all the way buddy
 
Make them silver and the car will be transformed.
 
Silver bro ... Quick !

Viewing your photos on my phone and I couldn't even see which wheels they were!

Honestly , with these slab sided 124's and 202's , the period AMG wheels look so much better than the thin spoked modern ones , that seem to suit the more extreme angles of modern MB's

Stick with the monos :thumb:
 
mmmmm okey dokey.. if im gonna stay with monos it would be nice to put a set on that had a bigger offset on the rear, i think these were standard on the c43s were they not..not sure myself though
 
Pretty certain the 43's had 17's as standard.

The e55 had 18's from the factory

That's right Howard.

Definitely stick with Monoblocks. AMG went to a lot of trouble and expense designing them for the C43 and E55 as Karl said they would have a hard job suiting any car IMO of course
