Stock c63 ride height wheels 18 by 8 1/2 and 9 1/2 tires nitro 05 sizes 275by40 rear and 245 by 35 front forge star f14 wheels what offset is appropriate. I do not want top of the wheels to stick out of fender wells. Thanks.

Personally, I do not like the look of a very aggressive set up if the car is not lowered.
That said, for me, I think:

8.5" at a 45 offset for the front (stick out 6mm more then stock)

9.5" I would do 50 offset for rear (stick out 10mm more the stock).

Most people on here would say thats too conservative for there taste. I would agree if you were lowered, but at stock height, I think it will look a bit more agressive then stock (especially with the wider rear tire), while still looking like they belong on the car (could have come that way as a special package from the factory or something like that).
But that said, eveyone has different tastes which is great...thats why they give you options with size and wheel style .

You've got your tire sizes mixed up.

should be 245/40/18 and 275/35/18

personally i would go with 255/40/18 for the fronts.
offsets would be et41 for the front and et52 for the rear.
wheel widths i would pick 18x8.5 and 18x9.5.

good enough for pss
