I'll update soon. so far i only had the time to take off one wheel and measure it, the one that has really close to the limit balancing and the same one that leaked air too. the measurement came out fine.

Trying to get a feel for this setup, eyeing some custom black forged wheels (forgeline monoblocks if anyone is interested)
front: 19x9 40et, 235/35 tire
rear: 19x10 55et, 285/30 tire
stock suspension
Sizes are weird due to winter tires being a huge pain to find for these cars.

Go for it Nelly.. Can't go wrong with any HRE wheels.
The new designs are so nice, but way too rich for my blood. Lol

I don't like to drop my cars, as they usually loose some functionality - and HRE sent the wrong center caps! I'll be getting the right ones soon

What about a 9.5 in wide wheel (50et) with the same 285 tire? Think the less aggressive offset cancels out the thinner rim?

Yeah, I agree with the others who say the fitment needs to be a little more aggressive and spacers can do that. Also needs to be dropped a tad.
Still, it's a hot car and the wheels are beautiful.
Saw a C63 Black series on Monday and I could not keep my eyes off of it.
