I agree. Using C350 springs is out of the question though. He is waiting for H&R to make a C63 specific spring

hhmmmm, car looks great and all....

but i really prefer the look of the 5 stars

i know multi spoke is more popular out west

when i was younger i was a big fan of rims, now i really feel the best stock rims on every car are the nicest

anyways, im jealous!

Looks nice - reminds me of M3 wheels a little, though.

WAY TOO SMALL.

19's look good on a c63 only if there is no lip.

With a lip, you need 20'' forsure

He may've been upgrading for better looks AND performance... w/20's, I think you're running a 25 series tire in the back - great for a show car maybe, but just wouldn't be practical in 99% of the other driving you might do.

Not my cup of tea. Maybe if they were 20's. I prefer the stock rims to those.

Looks nice. I probably would have chosen a rim with a larger lip.

I normally say even 19's are too large but for the C63, I think 20's would be a better choice in terms of looks.

But 19's in this case is function over form.

Most People buy the C63 for its performance. This is why he went with 19s instead of 20s. Also, the C63 has a 56 offset in the rear, so having a big lip is going to be out of the question, unless you wide body the rear.

not stock.
looks nice, should look insane when he gets it lowered, probably paint the orange reflectors too.......

I think its just a matter of "short" time before someone widens the rear to fit some real rubber... with those bulky front fenders, it would make sense.

Looks good but i think the stocks look much better. Side markers are much bigger than the C55's and really need to be painted or smoked!!
