AMG Aero II on the new C class?
Anybody try it yet? I have a nice staggered set in my posetion and if anyone has pics that would be great. Anyone see an issue with these? They are 18x8.5 and 18x9.5. Much better looking than the 17 inch stock wheels.
The offsets are et44 and et46. If you think they will fit can you recommend a tire size? I have a 4matic so I know matching height is a must.

If they don't fit they will be for sale. I actually have an extra front wheel for a full sized spare. I would love if someone could say if they will fit or a pic if you have ever seen them on a New C.
Not sure what they would be worth. These are the wheels if someone needs a visual. Maybe someone could photoshop them on a Black C class for me?

Stock 4 MATIC TIRES:
FRONTS 225/45R17 = 24.97"
REARS 245/40R17 = 24.72"
225/40R18 = 25.09
255/35R18 = 25.03
235/40R18 = 25.40
265/35R18 = 25.30
The wheel offsets and width you listed will work just fine. I'd prefer a +50mm on a 9.5" rear but I'm picky lol.
I personally would use the 235/40R18 and 265/35R18 combo for the width wheels you are using. They'd fit better on the wheels (225 and 255 would look a little stretched IMO). I didn't list 245/40R18 and 275/35R18 because they are taller but there's still plenty of room under the car. If you don't mind the taller profile and want more width, you may consider them.
Hope this helps

Well I am running 225/40/18's on the front already as that was what is on my VW. They are almost perfect with no stretch or maybe a slight inward tug if any.
I appreciate the information. I will post pics If I use them.
