Default Another new guy.

Hey what's up everyone. I'm another new guy. Just bought my first benz. It's a 2000 C230 Kompressor. I have big plans for my benz, first thing is first though, gotta get some 20's. And yes they will fit thanks to the nitto 2253520 (new tire size just came out not 2 long ago). If anyone has any suggestions about cool things i can do with my benz let me know.

Be cautious with fitting such big wheels on this car, especially if you car is equipped with ESP, brake boost etc. I know of someone who put 20's on a 230 and the handle and drivability were worst and he went back to stock with a wider tire. 20's IMHO is a stretch. What size are your stock tires?

We're having trouble finding a 20 in my bolt pattern that I like anyways, I'll probably end up with a set of 19's.
