I would recommend a 235/265 setup if you're going to be low.
9 +40 in the front is a good fitment for 245/30/20 if you want max tire-size. But, if you're going to be "low", then I'd go 235/30/20 or something like that.

Black 2013 Mercedes-Benz C250 Luxury
Hi guys, need some advice. I'm currently running 20" on my 2013 c250. 20x9 20x10 I made the mistake of a concave low +32 offset and of course I get rubbing when I go over dips.

brushed tinted clear
fronts: 19x8.5 +40 235/35/19
rears: 19x10 +51 275/30/19
Just need to take care of the inspection sticker on the car before I have them put on, no point risking damage to the wheels while the car is in the shop's hands

That looks perfect! @roswell... Im looking to get some HRE wheels for my car.
Although one website says that the 'HRE FF01' wheel does not fit a 2014 coupe, but the 'P40's do, is that correct? Its annoying if so the FF01's look gorgeous! Though I still really like the 'P40'.
If anyone has black C63 with either of HRE wheels PLEASE repost so I can get any idea or what my car would like, it would be much appreciated Ive gone through the thread but my mind is now spinning from overload haha

The flow formed FF01 should fit the C63 coupe since they fit the sedan.
Call HRE to confirm.
But I prefer the P40 as they are monoblock forged. Much stronger than flow formed wheels, although much more expensive unless u buy used.
One member here was selling is P40S & had a black coupe.. Let me get u the link.
Here u go.. They look beautiful on the black coupe...

^^ I find 20's to big big on sedan but ok on coupe so its ur choice. I just prefer the meatier tires & rim protection on the 19's.
Either ways, get x9 +40 front & x10 +50 rear for perfect flush fitment & nice concavity.
My first HRE set was 19x8.5 +41 & 19x9.5 +50 not flush enough with no Concavity so I ended up selling them.

AMG INK, if money is not an issue go P40SC vs P40 or P40S cuz u will get Concavity in the rear.
#2417
Money is an issue unfortunately haha but if Im gonna shell out alot of money on wheels I wAnt to do it right. You guys have been a big help BTW, its really appreciated.
So what do you mean concavity? And what is the difference between P40SC, P40 and P40S?

The P40 is more of a flat faced wheel design. P40S has more of a "bowl" center and the P40SC is "super conical". Easiest way to tell the different between the three is by looking at the centers. P40SC face goes inward creating a concave look:

See the pictures below and look at the rear wheel. On the porsche and w205 c63s coupe it sinks in and on the w204 c63 it does not. Unfortunately, the way the c63 is designed we can't really get super concave unless you have a BS or a widebody. But we can definitely get some concavity going.

Concavity is used to describe how flat the face of the wheel is. If the face of the wheel is flat it is not concave, but if the face of the wheel sinks in the closer you go to the hub then it is concave.

Ahhh I see, BTW I love the 997 Turbo! P40SC it is

The last picture of the W204 with non concave P44SC is due to the weak specs of 19x9.5 +50 .. As I menionned earlier, go with 19x10 +50 or 20x10 +50 rear & u will see the concavity.
Just look at the rear wheel in the pic I posted of my car above.
