Hi there PatSc23,

Not sure if you're gonna check back on your thread, but I had a similar thought before and quickly found out that apparently at this moment in time BBS does not make a wheel that will fit the C63. So while I was bored I quickly cobbled together a photoshop of a c63 with 18'' bbs LMS. Its not exactly a work of art but I think it'd convey what they would look like once BBS makes a fitment that can go on the c63.

Just remember with the offsets and the hassle of finding the correct wheels,
these stock rims are pretty nice looking. For me to get some Fikses are or
BBS wheels and spend 5-8000 dollars on a set of wheels they have to be an order of magnitude better than the AMG wheels.
I puts a set of Fikses on my GT3 and in retrospect I dont know if the aftermarket wheels were better than stock. In the case of the GT3 the 19"
wheels created a push on the track and the 18s handled better.

Give these stockers a chance. I think they are very nice for stockers.

I really think the stockers are boring. They remind me a lot of late 80's/early 90's Camaro wheels.

MBUSA: Just give us the F'ing 19" option. We'll take our chances on the road and sign a warranty waiver. The M3 has it and the IS-F has it as well.

Absolutely - probably I'm biased since I did have an '88 Camaro at one point.
