19" Wheels Off-Set Recommendation

Dear ALL,

Could you guys please give me suggestion regarding the wheels off-set on 19"?

My C300 will be coming with 18" AMG Wheels... and planning to change with 19"...



Does this ET+38 at front... and ET+50 at rear... will hit the wheel's fender or too close to suspension?

Any suggestion for the 19" wheels off-set?

Thank you very much...

245/40 R19 on 8.0J x 19 ET 43.1 (front), 265/35 R19 on 9.5J x 19 ET61 (rear)

this is stock c43 - so this will surely fit. Your set up is 11mm more aggressive. The tires are too thin IMO. 225 on 8.5 is stretched. 255 on 9.5 - same thing.

I'd say if you're lowering it's fine, otherwise you're gambling. depends on the look you're after and what other modification you're doing. H&R already have lowering springs for this car

I haven't seen anyone with aftermarket wheels on the forums. I do remember seeing a instagram post though.

Here is the C43 - you can see there is a little bit of room - probably not 11mm in the rear - maybe upfront.

vossen hf3 only available in select sizes. If I had to guess 8.5et40 (probably front or even square). Rear does look like it has more dish though so rear could be 9.5et40 or even 10et50

lowering would give another at least 10mm of clearance over stock with the natural camber (this is lowered)
