The tire sizes tire rack is recommending would not work without some alterations. You would DEFINITELY rub with 275/40/19
Im running 30 series in the rear and 35 series in the front, no rubbing

Let me guess:

235/35/19 in the front?
265/30/19 in the rear?

The site said 45mm offset, this can't be what your running

Yeah totally, it was bad grammar on my part. I was just asking "if" you found the info on tire rack.

So are there other equally attractive wheels that fit well, weigh less or the same, for the same coin or less. I am trying to get a short list of nice looking, light(ish) wheels that don't completely break the bank.

I really like his wheels but the lip isn't large enough for me. I like the deep dish look, where the spokes sit behind the lip instead of in front like those Breytons.

The Breytons do look good on the C43 though

Wow I am surprised you can fit the 245 in front with out rubbing, I am running 235/35/19 and I am millimeters from my fender but I do run 265/30/19 in the rear with no rubbing at all.

correction, I do have 235s on the front, I forgot that the previous owner has Kuhmos on it at 245s and it rubbed and I went and put the full set of Continentals on

Hmmm...are those 2-piece AMG wheels? Those are not stock on the C43 are they? My monoblocks seem really heavy (they are chrome plated too, so that don't help.) Are your wheels pretty light?
