I know this is an old thread, but I stumbled upon this after just ordering/buying my spacers.

@alexasa @Star4life You two seem to have done a lot of work on this. If you don't mind, can you let me know if these will fit? I am fairly new to this, so I appreciate any help I can get.

I have a 2019 C43 and this is what I bought:
Rear: https://www.fitmentindustries.com/st...m-bora-spacers
Front: https://www.fitmentindustries.com/st...n-bora-spacers

Thanks in advance!

They did not publish any specs like center bore or PCD, but assuming these are correct and since the thickness of the spacers you have ordered are 12.7mm and 15mm, you should have no problems fitting them. However, was 12.7mm and 15mm the thicknesses you were aiming for?

yes 12.7mm for front and 15mm rear is what i was going for! (The stock setup has the front closer to the fender than the rear, so just compensating so the front doesn't end up sticking out more than the back).

Thanks for getting back =)

most 15mm spacers fit no prblem. the 12.7mm spacer may not fit. i dont have experience with that brand so cant say.

also if the pictures on website are the actual product an dyou are using oem wheels, it doesnt look like the chamfer will match and it wont fit oem wheels.

supreme power makes spacers specifically tailored to combat the issues with the hub on these cars. I would highly recommend you use those to eliminate any issues.

I can not seem to find any spacers for C43 on their website. Or spacers in general. Can you provide a link to the recommended spacers to combat the fitment issues. I have a 2020 C43 Sedan. Stock 19 inch Black Multispoke. Stock ride height. Thank you.

Just contact them or reach out to mops@nemesisautosport.com and he can source them for you.

Their website is kinda trash. They were also a sponsor on these forums last I saw.

Looks great, what size are your wheels and what suspension setup do you have?

Thanks, I haven't modded the wheels or suspension. So OE 19" wheels and stock suspension.

Not sure if you care, but I noticed that the stock 18" actually has a more aggressive offset than the 19". And the 15mm rear spacers actually don't look enough on my 19" wheels. Im thinking about going up to 20-25mm (ONLY for rear)

Do you have any pics of the rear with those 15mms on there? I have the same stock wheels/suspension so I'm curious.

Considering people complain about the ride in these cars which I believe has to do with run flats and running 19s. I'm going with 18s. Even if the car came with 19s, id buy 18" wheels.
I have too much experience with going larger wheels. At 35, maybe im getting old, lol. But all of my other rides are not plush anyways, so somethings gotta give!!

Ok here are some pictures. I just took some quick ones, if you want other angles or close ups let me know.

Anyways, you can totally see that the rear is not flushed enough compared to the front. Even though I am using 12mm front and 15mm rear. The rear can definitely come out 5mm - 10mm more.

Thanks for sharing. I agree, it's got some more room to push out. I think I'd be happy with 20mm rears.

having the rears at the edge of the fender when you're not lowered is not a great look. Lower it before trying to go 20mm rear IMO.

would 15mm all around on a 23 c43 coupe be a good look?

Aren't you the judge of what looks good on your car? I guess you could ask for pics from people running that look to help you decide. Don't ask us for opinions, because we'll have many.
