Aftermarket Wheel suppliers
I am looking for a set of aftermarket wheels for my '10 C63 w/ 18" wheels to mount Toyo Proxes R888 for dedicated track use. I haven't had any luck finding 18" wheels with the OEM offset. Lastly, these are not for cosmetics just utility & I don't want to break the bank for 3-4 events a year. Any help would be appreciated.

Try www.detroitwheelandtire.com or www.lakeshorewheelandtire.com or www.powerwheelspro.com or www.wheelstudio.com for starters. I think these sites are prety reasonable. Hope that helps?

Your welcome, if you have any questions about your C63 just ask. I have alot of websites for parts, and accessories. Oh, I almost forgot www.formymercedes.com is another resource to use. I bought my CL63 RS wheels from them. Just talk to Jerry. And if you click on more pictures, my E63 is featured.

If you're looking for track purposed wheels, you'll want something light....Volks, Advan, OZ, and even IForged Track edition come to mind for good quality light wheels.

Let me know if we can help you with the forgestar's
Pretty hard to beat $1200 for a set of wheels you can abuse at the track!

This combination cannot be beat for a reasonably priced set of lightweight track wheels (7-9 pounds lighter than stock) with a true R compound tire that will get you to and from the track. The grip is so great that I am dealing with body lean for the first time. The Forgestar F14's from ACGSD are $1200 shipped for the set and I found a site to get the Trip 8's for $800. These wheels are now load rated for 1520 pounds which is well within the safety margin.
