Negative acceleration remnants that is...aka brake dust.
Wheels were filthy after less than a week. And just like always, rear wheels were still way more covered in brake dust than the fronts (still odd).

During:
After:
Also my car met its first twin on Friday!!! It was the first 2-door C250 that I’ve seen since I got mine!

Embrace negativity. Paint the wheels so the dust isn’t as noticeable.

Rears are more covered in brake dust because the C brake system has rearward bias. I believe it’s because it is on a RWD platform, even the 4Matic is split 45/55.

are the wheels stock? I hate seeing 250s at night because they look dangerously close to a C63 at night and I’m always like HELL NOPE THAT AIN’T A C63. And then one time it WAS a C63.

It is RWD but I didn't expect that bias. Thanks for the insight!

Yeah they are stock but they were part of the sport package that this one got. From my research that meant heated seats, those wheels, Harman-Kardon speakers, and a sport suspension...I think. Research is difficult on packages for new Carson the past lol.

Oh yeah, that’s right. AMG wheels are included in the higher level trims! My uncle has an S550 with AMG wheels.
