Advice needed on wheels (05 C230 SS)

eBay Motors: 19 AMG Mercedes C230 CLK430 CLK500 E350 E500 Wheels (item 150231534429 end time Apr-09-08 16:16:35 PDT)

AMG style wheels. (powder coat flat black) Option 1 (front offset is 32, rear is 38) 19x8.5, 19x9.5

eBay Motors: 19" MERCEDES RIMS WHEELS C230 E350 CLK SLK CL C CLASS (item 310037158338 end time Apr-10-08 13:38:20 PDT)

Brabus replicas (black centers) Option 2. (front offset is 32, rear is 35) 19x8.5, 19x9.5

I have a White/Black 05 C230 Sedan Sport. Will both of those wheels fit? Would I need spacers? And lastly, anyone have any guesses on how much my MPG will drop? I'm getting about 32-33 on average now. Thoughts?

I don't know anything about the fitment but I vote for option 1
Powdercoat flat black??? I would disagree with that IMO unless you had a black car.

I definitely like that wheel tho

If you go with the brabus knock offs go with them in black... If you go with option 1 (the better option i think) leave them as is those look HOT in alloy...
I think your car will look dope with option 1 as is... option 2 in black would be runner up but not even close to as cool option 2 with no paint would be #3 choice and option 1 painted would be my last choice hehe thats just my ideas

Definitely going black somehow. car is white with black leather interior. Doing the black CL grill with black hood emblem. Have to stick with the theme. Silver wheels just wouldn't look right I dont think, but I will wait till i install the grille and emblem before ordering wheels

For some reason i thought the car was silver... sorry...

I think the white with black looks hott...
I would def say Brabus replicas painted black it will look amazing.
if you were thinking about the other ones I like the rims I am just usure how they would look in black. I would say take a look at a few more black style options but Brabus replicas are hott in black!!

Knowing the car is white and you have black accents all over makes this way better looking haha Sorry for the mistake. The thin black spokes on a silver wouldnt be my style but they might look cool on the white...

We will see. Hopefully someone knowledgable can chime in on whether those offsets will actually work for sure.
