Hey everyone,

I bought a C55 in Mars Red last June and when I bring it out for the spring (Canada) I want to get some c63 P31 18" Black Replica wheels for it. My car right now has a set of replica "AMC" C63 Amg rims on it right now, with 235/40/18 front and 255/35/18 Rear.

The car was lowered with H&R springs when I bought it so I love the stance with the staggered set up. Now I think the rims are all the same width, either 8" or 8.5". My question is would anyone know what width these rims would be? I have tried searching for these "AMC" rims with not much luck.

Here are a couple of pics, thanks guys.

Appreciate that! I’m in Calgary CANADA but the car is actually a U.S car, and has 67,000 miles.
these are pics when I first got it. Since then I’ve put the “5.5 AMG” fender badges on it, and afferbach AMG hood badge. Car has kleeman long tube headers and a tune. I’d like to do resonator delete when I pull it out for spring.

No I actually ended up getting it last year from a guy who brought it over back in 2009.
