Is the highest rear offset in the 19x10 an ET48? Anything slightly less aggressive?

Should have offered a 9.5" in the Semi Concave. In time we will see if a 10" Deep Concave ET +48 will fit with a 275/30R19 such as the Michelin PSS. My guess is it will rub thus limiting the selection of rear tire widths and makes. Maybe not that big a deal to most people and nice wheels at a good price point. May tend to stretch the rear fitment a little.

We have found customers to prefer the staggered concave look between front and rear wheels in RWD vehicles. You would prefer the same concavity on all 4 corners?
We would recommend a 19x8.5F 19x9.5R for the C63 with these, as we do most of the time on the F14s. You can run a 275 on a 9.5 easily. The offsets will be similar in terms of fender clearance but will give you a lot more clearance inside. We have run many 19x10+48 and +50 without issues in the past. |

Anyone think these wheels bear some similarity to the Black Series wheels?

Good news!
So, you say that 8.5 semi concave and 9.5 concave is recommended for the C63...but in what offsets? |

We can do 19x9.5+42 or 19x10+48, there are the highest offsets Forgestar can make these in. Both have the same fender fitment. |

With this fitment and the car lowered...do the fenders need rolled?

What tires do you plan on running?
It will not work with a 285, it will with a 275 with added camber, it will a 265 easily. |

+48 will most likely be too aggressive, on lowered cars we usually run 275s with 19x10+53, and even then, it depends on your lowering.
I would retain the 265 on the 9.5 or the 10 ! |

If I were to order a 19 inch set in the brushed color for a 2012 c 63 coupe. What offsets would look agressive? Also how much of a clearance would I have in the wheel well? Would a 19 inch fill the fender pretty good, where I wouldn't need a drop? Also pm me a price to 48044 with tires and tmps. 275 back, 245 front. Deep concave

19x8.5+40 to 45
19x10+48 or 19x9.5+42 - same fender clearance, a lot more wheel well clearance. The 19s are the ideal fitment for C63s, 20s are just too big. You have a PM! |

Hi, can you email or PM me with some W212 E63 pricing?
Do the 9.5 semi concaves clear calipers in front? Have you succesfully done rear 11's w/295 and or 305 tires? Does Forgestar have these blanks in hand now? |

With a 19x9.5 in a 42 offset, I guess 265 is the widest tire you could go before rubbing? I heard with a 9.5 in a 45 offset, anything bigger then 275 rubs.

Correct, that is what we recommend. You could run a 19x10+48, fender clearance is the same but it will stretch the 275 a tad and with camber, it will fit.

That is the only downside of Forgestar wheels... if they would do a ET53 to ET 55 offset on their 19x10s then you could run a wider tire which would be great. Otherwise, these are beautiful wheels.

I agree, bummer they did not engineer a high offset possibility into these.
