Wheel offset: ET 45 Rear??

Would a 19x9.5 with ET 45 work for the rear wheel?

A 265 rear tire on this will is 14mm pushed out from OEM. It should be OK if you aren't lowered. On my car with OEM wheels and 265 tires, I can tell you I don't have 14mm to the fender.

My rears are 9.5 with a 50mm offset lowered on H&R. My rear rubs when I hit hard bumps. I'm going to switch my 275 to 265 this Friday.

ET50 seems to be what everyone says. So ET45 would push the wheel out another 5mm right? My car is a non lowered P30. I was looking at some of these 19" AMG replicas and they are saying the 19x9.5 ET45 will fit the C63?

On a non lowered car should be fine.

You should be fine depending on your tire choice.
I'm running 19x9 +45 in the rear and its close.

Are you lowered and what size tire are you running?

I was looking at Conti DWS and Hankook V12s

Yes, im lowered and running 265 Michelin Super Sports. Those specific tires run wide and its close.
I was running 265 Hankook EVO V12's before the Michelins and had good clearance, no rubbing whatsoever.

Im non lowered P30, so I might be lower then stock C63 my a small amount.

I was looking at the DWS tires as I was told they will last the longest.

I am i the process of ordering the SLS replicas from Power Wheel Pros. It is a 19x9.5 et45 rear but am having it machined to an et48 after posting on the forum and getting input about et45. Plan to run a 265 tire and keep the suspension stock, would like to run a 275 but not sure. Good luck and keep us posted

Do you have a pic or link to the SLS replica? I don't see it on their site.
Thanks

I used to have 19's that ran a 45mm offset and they rubbed pretty frequently in the rear...marred the tires

Was running a 265 pirelli.
