They should do yeah, go for replicas though as the OEM ones are prone to cracking. I'd suggest sticking to 18" size though. Also the 507 C63 alloys look heaps better than the standard 19" multispokes or the five spoke versions

That's a decent price, depends really I've only got the 7 spoke Amg diamond cuts at 18" but my brakes don't look too small, but with you having the C63 kit they'd probably look odd. Just paint the calipers red maybe?

Double check that 5x112 fitment before you buy, I'm 80% sure they're the same across al w204's but still make sure in case

I don't think mine has a kit on its just how I bought it. The exhaust system it has on now needs changed its a bit noisy just straight pipes welded on no mufflers back boxes

Hi Danny,

just be careful on the width of the back rim, especially if you are going to lower/space it.
Max I was advised is 9J on the rears of my c220, otherwise your gonna run into problems.
Think genuine 63's might have the 9.5J rear.

Thanks for the advice I will watch out for that

Ah I thought it had a kit on. Maybe switch from the double exhaust to a tidy single milltek exhaust? Will sound a lot nicer. Debadge would look good too, looks nice that car

Yea I'm unsure I love the look of the quads I have seen a cobra 1 that looks good and cks with square tips also looks nice too. I have just changes the badges to gloss black but I'm debating just removing the amg badge all together uploadfromtaptalk1465063977346.jpg

Hey Ash,

Any links to that Single Quad exhaust!

Been toying with the idea, but being a Diesel I wasn't sure on the idea.

Thanks

You mean a single double outlet? Lol I'll have a look now

Edit~

Can't find a 'single' exit exhaust mod, only the quad and that's with cobra sport

Reason I mentioned milltek as I had an A3 tdi which I installed a milltek and even for a diesel, it sounded sublime. But after looking they only do it for the c63

Armytrix do one for the c220 it sounds quite naughty with the valves open

My bad Ash,
Think I may have read your message wrong..


I am after pretty much what I have on the car, single oval exhast tip.
Wouldn't mind going to a Double exhaust, one side! but not a quad C63 exhaust, as I just don't want to make my car something its not.

but am struggling to find one that will sound a little bit better, some say remove the Muffler?

Thanks.. Sorry Danny btw

Yeah I couldn't find one its weird, I'd of thought one manufacturer would offer a similar exhaust to what's already on the car, only beefier

Perhaps as you say maybe a modification of what's already on there may suffice. Give Acid or Ollie on here a message they will know better :)

Hi Ash,

I recently bought my first MB and was emailed armytrix about supplying for a c220 and they said they don't do it, do you know anywhere that I can get in touch?

Diesel or petrol? I’d say armytrix is overkill for a 220, better off having a map and having custom changes to the exhaust although there’s not a great deal that can be done to the sound/performance on a 220
