offset in rear is too low. You would need to shave about 7-8mm off the rear.

I dont agree, i have 9.5 with 50 offset on the back with 275 tyre, no problems. 43 will stick out 7mm more, may have to use 255 or 265.

yeah but why use such a tire not as wide as the full potential of the car.

it would cost him probably $25ea to shave the 2 wheels.

There might not be enough material to shave off.

yes they do fit. I am currently running a set of 20" s65 forged wheels on my C63. i had to shave off 7mm from the rear offset, no rubbing even with 285's.
