Default Staggered Wheel Question

Good evening everybody,

I was looking into getting some 19 inch staggered wheels for my 2007 C230 Sport. I'm interested in finding out if 19x9.5 (Front) and 19x10.5 (Rears) will fit fine on the car and will sit flush with the fenders. I'm not planning to lower the vehicle as the C230 Sport already has somewhat of a drop.

The wheels I'm looking into are the Axis HIRO's.

Here what the wheels would look like (Note that the wheels I'll be getting with be Hypersilver not the gunmetal color as pictured below). Please give me your advice and suggestions.

Whats up Miami_07C230,

I have a set of Lowenharts with 19x8.5 in the front and 19x9.5 in the rear and the only problem I ran into was the size of the profile tire in the rear. Since my car is lowered I had to go with 265 instead of 275. The 275 would rub on the inside of the fender a bit. But, like I said, I dropped mine. Since you are not dropping yours, you should have more space to play with. I would check to make sure your not going to have complications, since it it a very wide rim. Hope this helps!

19x9.5 and 19x10.5 are bit too big for W203.

Are there any wheels out there that have a really nice staggered look to them? What I mean is, I want my rear wheels to havedeep enough lip...? What can you guys recommend?
