New 20" HRE Wheels.
I just received my new HRE M40 wheels from the US.
20 x 8.5 front with Pirelli P Zero 245/30/20
20 x 9.5 rear with Pirelli P Zero 285/25/20
I would like to thank Andre from Wheels Boutique in Florida for taking the time to explain everything and helping me with my choice. Also for arranging fast shipping to Australia. I cannot speak highly enough of them.
H & R coilovers are being installed in a couple of days, so I can lower it as it's sitting a little high.
I know a lot of people don't like 20's on C63's and think they look to big but personally I felt 19's were not a big enough difference from stock.

You should have ordered the 3pcs version with a lip if you like 20inch wheels, the monoblock looks huge on our cars. Nonetheless, they are gorgeous wheels... just watch out for potholes.

I installed my coilovers with the preset adjustment. Fender is just about at the tires. I have another 1" I can go with adjustments. Once i get the wheels on, Ill play with adjustments if needed.
Here is how my car sat after install. This is with the coilovers out of the box with no adjustments.

You won't scrape rip off the lip if you install it. I have KWV3s, 20" Venaci/Work wheels, and the lip stays on fine. You will scrape more though. So you should be careful going up ramps and stuff. I scraped the exhaust going up those really steep driveways. But the fenders cover a little bit of the tires, I could raise it up more but I'm happy with the way it is right now.

Just had the coilovers installed. The ride is better than standard suspension even with the 20's
20mm drop on front with no rubbing issues whatsoever.
10mm drop on rear but going to drop it another 10mm, total of 20mm.
No rubbing at moment but think I will need to shave a little off the stone guards on rear bumper when I lower it more.
