507 "Replica" Wheels
I know a lot of you guys will probly Not approve but found a set for really cheap $$$ but I was hoping some of you guys could answer some Questions I have since I'm not really a wheel guy and don't know to much about them
Tryed to get the weight of the wheels couldn't get the info
They are 19x8 19x9 offset +45 for both front and rear
How does that work? What is the negatives if any? And also what's the difference from specs in these reps compared to real oem 507s
Please lmk guys !'

I don't have much to offer, but don't forget that you will get what you pay for. I don't know much about wheels, but I wouldn't mess around with a 450+ hp, 440+ lb-ft of torque RWD car and fake wheels.
"Replica-Fake" wheels can cause accidents, and in many cases results have been fatal.
If you can afford a C63 coupe, you can surely afford a nice set of wheels. GL!

I'd always take authentic AMG wheels, regardless of what they look like, over just about any replica wheel.
My two cents.

shoulda kept that comment to yourself
And what I Can and Can't afford is not yours or anybody else's Business , a comment like that is very rude and kinda shows what kinda shallow person you are, Basically If you have A Wife , chances are She's having an Affair and the guy probly has Replica Wheels on his Car. IMO

LOL, sorry if I hurt your feelings. You're not the only one working three odd jobs to drive a German car, seen idiots like you delivering Pizza with their 650i, E550, etc... and they weren't the franchise owner.

People would pay good money to watch you two guys go at it! You could use the money for oem wheels. Oh snap.
Seriously people have run aftermarket wheels on race cars with high hp for years with no problem. Heck I've seen oem wheels crack.
Just be sure the mfr has some track record. And these wheels would be ok on street but prob not for running the ring.

OEM 507 are 19x8 +45 & 19x9 +54 ... so the front will be sunk in exactly as OEM, I would use 10mm spacers to make them flush.
The rear will look nice & flush with OEM size tire 255/30/19.
Please no need for bashing replica wheels, for street use they should hold up fine. There's plenty of aftermarket wheels called flow formed or cast or even forged that cracks if you hit a pothole big enough... just drive carefully. And yes, I would not track with those wheels.
P.S Calling each others wife's name is childish.

Ask for a picture of the back of the wheel
See who made them and what ratings or certifications they hold/comply with
Many 'fake' wheels hold the Japanese cert which is very stringent
As said for street use they should be fine

Have you looked at BBS F1's? They look identical to the 507 wheels. There are others out there as well that look very similar from ADV1 as an example. If you want replicas, get what you want. It's your money, enjoy what you want.

It wouldn't surprise me to find out the stock 507 wheels are BBS's.

To say that replica wheels are dangerous is silly. Yes they are replicas, but they are still actual rims. Note that many Mercedes replicas won't have the AMG logo on the wheel due to licensing issues (if that matters to you).
Kosei K1s are some of the most popular track day wheels out there and they only run $150 each, far less than what many replica wheels go for. A quick google of "BBS cracked" will show you that even $500+ wheels can be prone to failure.
Also I think the OP is looking for a set for around $1000, not ADV or BBS that are $1000+ a rim.
