FYI i have a 2012 c63....thanks in advance

They should have a staggered fitment....8.5 fronts and 9 rears....I think the sizes are 235/35/19 front, and 255/30/19 rears (OEM)...are these OEM wheels? I know for my winter OEM they came with 8" wheel all round for snows....

no there not OEM, I had hit a pot hole with my OEM 18" and bent two of the rims so i bought these off ebay...so i should i probably return them hah...the 19x8 would not work for the fronts?

absolutely return them. as GRP said.. unless they are being used jsut for snow with winter tires on them, they are not at all what you need. personally im running Modulare M14s 19x8.5 front 19x10 rear.. my winters are 18x8.5 front 18x9 rear.

Check the aftermarket wheel thread, people usually post the size and offsets along with tires with pictures. The wheel fitment for our cars are difficult since the offsets are shallow, and width in the rear is limited.
You can avoid all the headaches of picking the wrongs sizes and offsets by buying a used set of quality rims with correct fitment. There's one in the wheel and tire section for sale. (shameless plug)
