It really depends on the width of the wheel and the offset.Originally Posted by ob4rEaL

Please understand, for many of us, any 19" is the wrong tire (heavier unsprung weight, slower to accelerate, longer to brake, worse fuel economy, worse ride quality, etc,., but some like the appearance better....I guess Originally Posted by ob4rEaL

). We read the threads, but have nothing to offer which can help. A few folks have gone into 19 or 20, so you need for one of them to come across your posts. 17" and 18" OE sizes are the majority.I hear that....but c class comes stock with 17/18.... so 19 shouldn't be much of an upgrade to feel that much of a diff....besides, and I'm sure most people agree....some of the nicest cars here are wearing 19 or 20s....hotel, azn, etc....

The picture posted doesn't say much. I'm sure there are more than 1 company that makes AMG replica. So just from the picture we can't really tell what width is so we can't recommend a tire. You're going to have to help us out with more info so we can help you.
All I know is staggered fitment....8.5 front 9.5 rear...dunno anymore,

Explore245 is going to bulge a little on 8.5". Need the offset to see if it would fit but replicas are not aggressive so I would say they will. 235 match well to a rear 265, I run 225 up front wich looks a little stretched compared to the 265 rear.
But my rear is 9.5 .....so it shouldn't stretch more than the rear...I just wanna make sure I won't rub on my strut/coils/fenders....do u think I should look into 225 for the front instead?

Never used AMG replica wheels before, but generally 35+ offset is too small of an offset for aftermarket wheels on our cars.Originally Posted by ob4rEaL
35+ is the offset...8.5 front 9.5 rear? whats the verdict
too small...what does that mean...the guy who sold them said this should fit fine...does too small mean they will rub with the tires or what?
so the wheels are 19 8.5 / 19 9.5 44mm offset....will these fit with 245/35/19 / 265/30/19 w/out any issues or rubbing?

Replica means a copy of something, usually a rather poor copy at that. This wheel does not look like any AMG wheel I've ever seen.Originally Posted by ob4rEaL

OK....so I've gotten a bunch of maybe / or I think so....no one really gave me a definite...the specs and details for the wheels are there...I guess I'll take my chance wiith the rim seller!

~ a 50 mm offset on a 9.5 would be the correct fit for rear wheel of the c coupe.Originally Posted by hwpaints

I have 245 up front on my 19s. 8.5 width, 47 offset. It looks alright, just a tad big but ill wait to get 235 once these tires are worn out. Personally, i would go with the 235s for looks, 245 for better ride.. Just my opinion. GL.
