Wow that looks sick. More pics in daylight asap

Roswell

Looking awesome! Definitely more pics outside.

Specs for the rear, they look aggressive... but love the concavity!

P.S You now need a drop. LOL

Hedges

That concavity is spot on and loving how it looks on the car! Lets get more pics of the whole car now!

Kriston

I love your color. So unique.

Cant wait to see some full sized pics!

Hi guys excuse my rookie question but could You fit 20"s vossen CV3 and also lower the car but avoid rubbing with 4 adults in it ?

Jasonoff

The 20" Vossen CV3 will fit. Their 8.5" is +44 and their 10" is +55.

Chrishke63

Really that is a good news what tyre size would you recommend and how low could I lower the car without rubbing ?

QuartzBlueP31

Having trouble getting pics to upload. Any suggestions?

Thanks

QuartzBlueP31

Outside this time.
finally got it to upload!

Kriston

Your colour combo looks great. Carbon interior trim ? if so I would love to see how it looks with the interior colour.

Did you colour match your ADV logo's on the wheels to your car? If not, it may just be the angle of the pictures.

QuartzBlueP31

No carbon on the inside yet, yes the ADV logos are color matched

Thanks

dchl21

nice! never seen this color before

Roswell

Quartz, any plans on lowering? Needs it big time LOL

BTW, are you wheels 3pcs with hidden hardware? Not really feeling the huge lip behind the spokes, it's hiding your beautiful red calipers too much.

Kriston

Love it! Small attention to detail like this really stand out to me!

Well done buddy,

QuartzBlueP31

Looking at H&R springs and KWs now not sure which way I am going to go yet.

anyone have a good deal on H&Rs?

Wheels are 2pcs w/hidden hardware, in person the calipers stand out, but, you are correct the lip does hide them somel.

Kriston

The H&R Coil-overs are about 1300-1450 + Shipping.

Springs - any of the vendors on here can get them for you.

A modest drop would do wonders for the appearance of the car!

I have just finished going through all 50+ pages of this thread to find the perfect set of wheels for my 2009 C63. I thought I Had it all figured out, but now I am a little confused. Would like to run 19" wheels with 245 front and 275 rear (not sure of the tires yet). From reading this thread I thought I would need a +41 offset on the fronts and a +54 offset on the rear to prevent rubbing with the wider tires. Talked to a dealer on the phone about some 19" Nische Essen wheels 8.5" front and 10" rear, and he said that those offsets are way too big. So my question is, do the offsets change if I go from a 9" wide rear wheel to a 10"? Is there a way to calculate the correct offset base on the wheel width?

olszowa12

It depends if you want to lower the car or not.
If not, you can go with more aggressive offsets.

But if you want the car to be dropped on springs or coilovers, you'll need about a +50 offset in the rear and about a +40 offset in the front.

It also depends if you want to run Michelin PSS tires which are much wider/square than other brands out there.

Not planning on lowering. This is my year round driver in Alaska so I need as much clearance as I can get. So to make sure I understand offset correctly: a higher offset will bring the outside lip of the rim further away from the outside fender flare, and a lower will bring it closer. Am I worried about rubbing on the inside of the tire/chassis, or only on the outside?

Jasonoff

This is Front 8.5 +40 with a 245 and Rear 10 +55 with a 275.

Going by my car if it wasn't lowered the 40 would be fine in the front and maybe get away with a 50 in the rear.

Roswell

^^ u are correct, lower the offset closer u get to the outside fenders. Higher the offset, closer u will get to the suspension .. So u need to find the right balance.

What is the specs availability for the wheels u are looking for? Maybe ur dealer think they will not fit ur C63 cuz that wheel doesn't come with ideal offset for the C63.

If really they come in 19x8.5 +41 & 19x10 +54. They will fit nicely unless the spokes are not BBK friendly like some concave wheels.

Roswell

Sorry Jasonoff, but I'm really questioning the accuracy of ur offset front & back.

The front looks more like +38 & rear +52. They are too flush to be 19x10 +55. Lol

Jasonoff

I measured them and they appear to be correct. I took the outer edge width (wider than bead width) then the distance from the inside outer edge to the mount face and did the math.
