C55 Wheel Fitment Help
So I already did a lot of searching but didn't really find what I was looking for. I'm wondering if you guys think a set of Fikse FM10s that are 18x8 ET38 will clear the stock brakes up front on a C55 AMG, or what some of the highest offsets you can get away with before you hit the brakes? I've got the wheels in question for sale and someone interested who's not sure if they will fit. Thanks!

Offsets
I just put on some Fikse Profil5s 18 x 8 ET38 on the fronts of my 03 CLK 55 AMG. I had to used 5mm spacers to clear the calipers & you will need new 12mm x 1.5 thread 30mm long bolts In the rear I used 18 x 9 et38 , They fit pretty good , I used 12 x 1.5 thread 27 mm long bolts

C-55 Offsets
They were built & set up for a Benz and the 1st 2 pictures are the front with the 5 mm spacer install. The last picture is the rear wheel. Cheers

Cool, thanks again your wheels look amazing, care to post a few pics of the car? I've got some profil 13s on my car now and love them. Fikses have always been my favorite wheel manufacturer and I'm glad their back in business.
