Silver 2009 C63 AMG
I'm not a fan. But I am in the same boat in that I am trying to find a wheel that makes my C63 unique. I'm trying to find a way to get the 19" C63 rims that they offer overseas, sent here to the states. Have you seen them, they are fairly similar yet still AMG? If any of you guys know how to get the 19" C63 AMG rims in the U.S. from an MB dealer, please let me know. I have seen the third party websites but I'm a little leery

Funny, right after my post went live I saw the name of the wheel and said to myself "Oops"

I too want something unique and to this point I haven't found anything that is speaking my language... I am considering Dymag but damn those are spendy.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback everyone.

So since were in the wheels topic, I will just jump on your thread.

Im kinda considering these... any feed backs? The 1st one reminds me of the Euro wheels with a concave twist. The second one is your typical mesh 3 piece wheel design with wider spokes that appeal to me.

They make quality JDM wheels... its kinda weird putting Japanese wheels on a euro but I'm mehhh. It looks good and the quality of work is definitely there.

I'm definitely not the 1st one to attempt it though. Here is an SSR wheel on a beamer.

Are they making LMs that will fit on our cars? Those would be the best looking wheels for us.

Deep dish wheels dont fit on our cars either. Plus, IMO a wheel with a big lip has gotta be a 20 and that would DEFINATELY not fit.

I might be able to get discount

I heard BBS is currently making rims to fit the W204 C63s...but I dunno when it'll be ready. BTW I asked about a month ago.

Please don't put BBS wheels on a C63. IMO it won't look good but to each its own....

Forget the lame advice about "Its called the M3 so I don't like it". WTF-ever. Its a nice looking wheel and without a pshop, I'm guessing it would look nice.

Anyone who thinks LM's won't improve the look of *any* car is just nuts.
