C63 wheels on C43?

C63 Coupe wheels on C43 Coupe?
Is it possible to fit the 19"/20" combination wheels on a C43 or will the offsets/clearances be completely wrong because of the wide body?

General forum etiquette on here (and virtually every other forum) is that you do a search first...and then ask for clarification or in the cases where you cant find the info, just ask. I've been there, so I'll try to give you a bit of guidance based on what I've read.
I believe the staggered 19/20 fitment is only available for the C63 Coupe...and those wheels will *not* fit the C43 as they are too wide in front and back. Note that the C63 Coupe has wider fender flares that allow it to use a wider wheel without looking silly. I *think* if you find the 19s that come off of a C63 Sedan, they will fit the c43. There's a thread on here with similar info
Hope that helps...good luck with your wheel search.

For everyones information,the wheels do fit,I put a set of C63 wheels from a Sedan, onto a 43 coupe then onto a sedan c43 its all to do with the width of the wheels, 7.5j 8.5j 9j, 10j etc , you get it, nothing to do with a flared arch its all to do with the wheel width,sometimes if you put the wider width wheel on youll need a spacer to stop it rubbing on the arms
I wish people would stop posting answers they are just guessing,if someones asking a question dont just guess or think you know, fact is always a good or sa nothing at all
Reason I say this is............My roll bars in my c43 cabrio popped up,i asked the question can they be put down,armchair experts gave answers like,youll need to replace the roll bars, reprograme the ecu, its a one time use, change the actuators, youll need to renew the wind deflector it holds the squibs......the actual Fact answer from Mercedes engineers was...... they can be put back down at a cost of...£130, Labour i imagine, .....they are resuable once reset by clicking back into place, no sqibs/actuators wind deflectors to replace, ithey run off a current
If you dont know, dont guess,the person asking the question only wants a Fact answer to fix it so they can determine to do it him/her self, a local garage or worse case senario the main dealer

Perhaps before berating others for posting CORRECT information, you should read (and understand) the question being asked.

As I said, c63 sedan wheels will fit any c43 (spacers needed on front). as seen below on my c43 sedan. C63 coupe wheels which in the USA are 19" front x 9 inch width and 20" rear by 10.5" width will not fit c43 in front and rear is at limit.

I had a PFL C43 coupe and thinking to install these forged wheels but could not find any photos from the internet that installed on a C43.
Thanking you in advance.
