Will C63S stock 19" rims fit a C43?

Even though I find that the C43 looks like a gem, I absolutely HATE its Rim collections. I know there are aftermarket options but I have not seen any aftermarket rims which looks as good as the C63s stock 19". Those are some beautiful rims and I was wondering if they would fit my C43.

C63 sedan wheels would fit C43 sedan and coupe, however C63 Coupe would not fit the C43, nor will it fit the C43 Coupe.

Standard wheels:
C43 sedan: 225/45R18 front and 245/40R18 rear
C63 sedan: 245/40R18 front and 265/35R18 rear
C63 S sedan: 245/35R19 front and 265/35R19 rear

C43 coupe: 225/45R18 front, 245/40R18 rear
C63 coupe: 255/40R18 front, 285/35R18 rear
C63 S coupe: 255/35R19 front, 285/30R19 rear

Sorry, I should have been a bit clearer. I was just wondering about the Rims specifically. Like will the C63s 5 star 19" rim fit the C43 sedan given proper tire sizes.

I think they should work.

You can pick them up from here.

Just double check your current wheel offset.

My plan was to somehow acquire these rims from someone who is selling it and then put the original 19" C43 spec tires on it. Has anyone here really pushed the offset limit for the kind of rims you can put on these cars?

I wouldn't just guess as to what and won't fit...

Look at your operators' manual or one online to figure out what the relative fitments are (wheel and tire combos are usually listed at the back for the entire segment.)

Axles and front fenders are different between the cars which means that differences in offset will be amplified more greatly.

Not as simple as swap and go.

Hope this helps!

front will need approx 6mm-8mm spacer, rear will bolt up. use c63 tires sizes in rear 265/35/19, but use 235/40/19 in front.


this has been covered in c43 wheel fitment guide. i recommend you read.

Thank you for your informative response. I got the seller to go with me to a shop to get them fitted. The problem is his fronts are 245, and wont sell without them. Do you know if this will cause any serious issues?
Thanks again, Im super excited!

245s would rub if you dont space out far enough. and if you space out too far youll be poking and look bad. buy the rims with the 245s and swap them to 235s after.

I am also leaning towards on doing this set up. I currently have a 12.5mm spacers on front & 20mm on rear. I want to ask if this spacers are going to be good enough. I will be using the tire size that you mentioned on your reply above.

Thank you.
