Front: Vossen VFS-2 20x8.5 with 13 mm Spacer to get me at ET +31
Rear: Vossen VFS-2 20x10 ET 55 (no spacer)
Front Tires: Continental DWS 245/35/20
Rear Tired: Continental DWS 275/30/20
I was wondering with that spec you are saying, will the outer side of the front wheel will be further out from the rear wheel outer side ?
Mine...
FRONT： Vorsteiner 19 8.5J offset +42mm (spacers: 12mm) give me +30mm offset
REAR： Vorsteiner 20 9.5J offset +46mm (spacers: 5mm) give me +41mm offset
Love your car and you seem to be very knowledgeable about c43 fitment. I have a c43 coupe and I am running vossen cvt 20 x 8.5 +40 in front and 20 x 10 +50 at the back with 10mm spacer in the front. My tyres are currently 235/35/20 (front) and 275/30/20 (rear) but i bust tyres regularly due to the poor road surface where i live. I am trying to find a fitment with more meat that wont rub etc. I am thinking of 245/35/20 in front. I have seen where other folks on here have that fitment and report that it works. Im not sure what adjustment to make at the back though. Any advice you can offer is much appreciated
Yeah I just purchased a set of Vossen hf3 and I'm running a 20 by 8.5 inch rim with a + 40 offset and I'm going to use a 8 mil spacer on the front with 225/35/20. And on the back I'm going with a 20 by 10 inch rim with a + 50 offset and 255/30/20 . Do you agree with the spacers or what do you think I should run on the front end should I run a spacer on the back and are u running any type of lowering spring

I had a C450 before I had my c63s. I had Vossen's on the C450. Well, I have another set on my C63s. For my C450, I ordered directly from Vossen and they sent the spacers that allowed the front wheels to be installed.

Yes, a lot of test fitting back then. The fronts were the initial problem. Finally, i think +30-32, was where everyone were for the fronts. The rear was more forgiving.
Anyways, here you go. 'Hope this helps.
Fronts: 20x8.5 offset: +32; 245/30 20
Rears: 20x10 offset: +55; 275/30 20
Wow these are gorgeous! Luv how they look. How is the ride?
Current setup on:
20x8.5 +32 Front 245/35/20
20x9.5 +46 Rears 275/30/20
Lowered with H&R Springs
Thanks to Mo11 for all his help in getting me dialed in!
@atl 2 chi's old Vossen VFS-2's refinished in satin black on my '19 C43:
245/35/20 20x8.5 ET+44 (with 12 mm spacer to get me to ET +32)
275/30/20 20x10 ET+55 (with 5mm spacer to get me to ET +50)
Lowered on H&R VTF adjustable springs
I am getting some rubbing on the fronts when going around turns with decent bumps(front part of fender near bumper) or when hitting a large enough dip in the road straight on(fender liners). I'm thinking of going to 235/35/20 tires in the front to see if it helps or perhaps even 245/30/20.

WOW!!! Looks amazing!!! I had the H&R with no rubbing unless I hit a huge dip in the road and it would be just the front. I got different recommendations on sizes on the front. Discount tire recommended one size on the front to get the load correct and Vossen recommended another size with no mention of load. I went with Discount tire. I think Vossen recommended 235/35/20 on the front.
