The best wheels i can think of are HRE's and CCW. Either 18" or 19", i wouldnt go bigger then 19". Brushed aluminum is always my number 1 choice next to satin black.
There shouldn't be a problem with lowering as long as you get the right offsets, and you don't go too crazy with the tire width.

Looking for lightweight check out the HRE Competition series, it's the lightest wheel they build.

Don't get snippy with 17 posts to your name. Furthermore don't be offended when you ask ridiculous questions that won't give you much insight.

I love your wheels! Also I think we all agree that the best shoes come from Italy right?

+1 Rims themselves are a matter of taste, and the price you are willing to pay usually dictates which company to go for.

Mentionning your budget is very important. Wheels for the C63 go from 1000$ to 15 000$. I live in Montreal where the roads are crap, so I would get lightweight forgestar F14 at 1 300$ instead of 10 000$ wheels.

HRE's are hard to beat. Had the 547's on my Viper and they were great. Just on the expensive side.........

Haha yes you are measured with posts! are you new to forums or something. And you didn't ask for opinion....maybe you need to learn the proper use of words and sentence structure.

Ok you did ask for opinion but it is STILL like asking what are the best shoes. You where different shoes for different occasions right? To match different outfits. Wheels are the same way. I just don't want you thinking that any one wheel is the best.

Do we even know what color your car is?! With that being said here is my attempt to add some value. If you are going to lower your car, then go with 19s, if not go with 18's. Always lower your car first before getting wheels. One you decide how low you want to go, then you can buy wheels and test fit wheels.

More info for you. and 18 inch full face wheel will look about the same size as a 19 inch wheel with a lip. So if you want a wheels with a lip, go 19, if you want a full face wheels stay 18. If you want to stay 18 for ride comfort, then look at full face wheels only (meaning spokes go all the way to edge).

That help some. We didn't even get into color of wheel and type of finish yet

Then do you want a lighter wheel? Go with a forged brand of 18's. Go wide in the rear (10 inches) so you can fit a wider tire. 19's will look bad without lowering. It will make the wheel gap stand out more.

Yup, use your OE tire sizes. Those wheels will work as well. I'm running almost the same thing and I'm dropped.
