I have the factory 17 inch AMGs and thinking about aftermarket 18s all round. Anyone done this? Any bad points ? Ie tram-lining or harsher ride? Do they fit ok? what sizes do you/merc recommend?

You could definitely put 18s onto your 320 as many fellow W208 owners do. Some even go for 19s but then in both cases you will most likely experience slightly heavier steering and a little harsher ride. On top of that, the car's pick up would be affected. Having said that, I must admit putting 18s wheels on do indeed give the car a sportier look. The side effects are quite mild, or even go unnoticed.
