Hi. Do you think it's possible to fit a 9" wheel in the front? I know it entirely depends on the offset so I'm trying to figure out what offset would work to clear the inside and at the same time, not poke. This is for a C400 btw. Thanks guys!
Very aggressive.. I have camber arms in the rear but not in the front.. But have stretched tires to make it fit.. not for comfort but for looks
wow i think youre the only one whos running such an aggressive set up lol i really want to run 20x9 et44 in the front but thats 19mm less inner clearance than the stock wheels, 19x7.5 et44 (i think thats what the spec is on a 19" multi spoke amg wheels) so im just afraid that thats not gona clear on the inside and i dont really wana go more aggressive than that as far as the offset goes, since thats almost identical to 8.5" et35 wheel. SIGH

These were back when I first finished the car with a former supplier, running the stock 19" tires with a 19x8.5 ET45 Front and 19x9.5 ET50 Rear. No rubbing and no fender mods necessary. Later I switched the car back to the stock 19x7.5 and 19x8.5 AMG multispokes with spacers to fill out the offset. Running a wider rim and more aggressive offset wheel or spacing the factory wheels with a more aggressive stance reduces the gap in the fender considerably. I thought many times about lowering the car, but the front end is already so low that driveways and tire blocks would end up having me in the paint shop on a weekly basis. As far as wheels that fit and any of you that have questions about what fits, my suggestion is to always research the tuners first, they post the wheel info on their websites for each individual chassis, for example Brabus shows a variety of wheel applications...these guys write the bible of what works and what doesn't, so if you are looking for aftermarket wheels and not sure what is going to fit, avoid the guessing game and just look up what the German tuners are doing...they need to follow the strict rules of the TUV, so tires and wheels applications will be spot on for what works for everyday use. Hope this helps.

May I ask what they are and where you got them from? Are your wheels staggered?
Thanks man! Yes we both love them and everyone that looks at the car does stop a moment to see the wheels and just the overall stance of the car. I plan on doing the window trim wraps this weekend and the front bumper lip wrap as well. Chrome delete basically.
Wow, these are some beautiful cars. I am still deciding which configuration I want but it seems like the side slits on the rear bumper totally change the look of the car and that is something I assume you'd need to buy with it already on or $$$ for a new bumper. The things such as a front lip, rear diffuser and wrapping various parts I can get done fairly inexpensively. I found just about the perfect 2017 c300 with some sort of amg/sport package but it does not have the slits for some reason and I feel like it might be a deal breaker. It has just about everything else including some polar white interior, matte disegnio exterior paint even the high end burmeister sound. It's killing me that the side slits aren't there, it even has the two back bumper protrusions that surround the license plates (I don't know what they are called but they've been on porsche and other perforamance cars for the longest).
