What offsets do I need on a 8.5 inch wide 18" up front and 10 inch wide 18" in back on a non-lowered car? I want to run 285s without rubbing.

Don't know exactly what offsets you need but they're gonna be high if you safely wanna run 285's. It also depends on your tire selection because some tires run wider then others.

Btw you can run 285 Nitto 555R's on the stock OEM 18's.

For weight savings, I wonder if it makes more sense to run the 285s on 9.5" wide rears. Or in the alternative, if you get the offsets high enough on a 10" wide wheel, do you guys think that you could get tires wider than 285's to work?

I was reading today about how Z06 owners get to run 345's on 12" wide rears and it makes me jones to shoehorn crazy wide tires onto the C63.

Why not just run 275's? Youll be surprised that certain 275mm tires are just as wide as 285mm tires.
There is absolutely no way you will get tires any wider then 285's to work unless you stretch out your fenders or have 20" wheels with the right offset and with a 25 aspect ratio sidewall.

The reason why you could fit 345's on a Z06 is because they car is VERY wide already and there is alot of room to play with in the rear.
Were the 345 tires you saw on the Z06 NITTO INVO's?

Same thing goes with the E92 M3's. I know guys that were running TOYO T1R 315/25/20 on they're 20" wheels.
Try to get a 315/25/20 Michellin PS2 or Conti Sport Contact 2 or 3 on the same wheel and you'll start having rubbing issues.

Thanks. I'm going with Hankook Ventus V12 Evo tires. 275's out back if they fit.

I'm calling ccw tomorrow to change my order to clear anodized instead of black. Hope that finish looks good on a steel gray car.

It should be around $700 per wheel I think.

I was told that they'd be on my car in about 10 days. Pics to come. They will be the clear anodized rather than black anodized. Can't wait.

yet another "limited edition" TE. I couldn't read this too well, but it does mention something about being available for the C63... Wonder what they'd look like for the C!

another Japanese C63 with some 20" rims. That's some major concavity in the rear! The front lip looks interesting, can anyone identify it?

Those Volks would look great on a C63. I wish they were easy to come by.
