If you go with 19's your ride will SUCK! you won't have enough tire to absorb any of the minor road imperfections and you're kidneys will hate you for it. I had an 02 C230K Sport Pkg and went to a staggered 18" setup and it looked good and didn't sacrifice too much comfort. Check out the Drifz 506GM wheels. You can get 18x9.5 rear and 18x8 fronts. The rear has about a 3" lip and the front about an 1". They look good and won't break the bank. If you want I can try and dig up some pics of my old car with the wheels on it?
