I will have to realign the car next season but I am running close to -3 front (camber plates) and -2.5 rear (no links). But handling wise it feels better, the turn in with the front heavy chassis feels more controlled and rear traction is slightly compromised but it still gets good grip around winding roads, etc.

Wheel sizing is standard except I am running 9.5j +40 / 265 in the rear. Rubs with any passengers or cargo in the rear but I love how aggressive it looks on stock fenders for now.

Very clean!!

I feel dumb asking this, being that this is a aftermarket thread, but does anyone have stock AMG wheels powder coated in black? I would like to try it out before dumping alot of money on aftermarket wheels.

Thanks,

What is max width & et for front and rears so that you can still have as much concave in the rear as poss as well as widest tyre sizes. The car will run low on coilovers.

The front 19x9? et? Tyre?
The rear 19x10? et50? with 275 on sedan?

Very flush with these specs & rear concavity is noticeable despite our cars high offset. But it depends on the wheel brand & style u pick.

Here is another pic showing rear concavity, different set of wheels but same specs @ 19x10 +50 w/275/30/19.

Keep in mind HRE are custom built wheels so off the shelves wheels might have a different concavity.

Thanks, looks good for the 19s Multispokes I want to get made for daily wheels, might go with a two piece though as three pieces can get airleaks. I will save the three pieces for some 20" show wheels.

Are you on coilovers? And do you think you could go any lower without issues?

I'm on H&R springs & I don't think I can go lower w/o rubbing unless I add negative camber. They are very flush as is.

You have the same amount of chance of a 2-piece wheel & a 3-piece wheel leaking on you. One is not more prone to do so more than the other.

The only one that has a greater chance of not leaking is the obvious Monoblock.

I agree, 2pcs wheels also have inner & outer barrels which are sealed with silicone.

I never had luck with those multi-PCs wheels.. They all leaked soon or later, more maintenance than monoblocks or 1pc cast weels like OEM wheels.

Not that my data collection is scientific, but it sure seems to me that I have read of lot more leakage cases with 3 piece than 2.....

Any fender work needed or alignment changes? Those look really good.

Anyone running a non winter square set up? I am STOCK HEIGHT.

I've done some searching and all I see are winter suggestions running 235's.

Im looking at a set of wheels, 19x9.5 +45, would like 265 or 275 rubber all around.
