To answer your lug question, you're gonna need Conical seat lugs for these beauties. Get some black ones from Craig @ RPM. They will look SIIIICK!

I received my black bolts yesterday from Craig and they really
look awesome.

WWOOWW those are some great shots!! Very nice location too. Ok done deal, whenever Im on the OC area Im gonna let you know.

_AMG_

I would love to see some pics.

That was my initial thought. Looks like im gonna hit up RPM.

James@ACG

Most if not all of the HRE Monoblok are built to use the factory lug bolts... the set that we just picked up for a C63 were ball seat.

If you dont mind me asking, why did you decide to run only a 19x9 on the rears? I would suggest the 235/35 19 since you have such an aggressive offset on the front, I would do the 265/30 19 since your putting them on a 9 but the 275/30 19's will work just fine.


the P40's we just got are Gloss Charcoal 19x8.5 et48 weighed 22.6 lbs, and the 19x9.5 et50 came in at 23.8lbs

You said P40--- these are M40's and are yours the P40(S) which is the lightweight version- and are yours for benzes? I ask cause the 40 series for Benzes are M.

James@ACG

Good catch vic, i didnt notice AMG stated M40's

the M Series was technically discontinued back in 2009, and was moved to the P series, the current monoblock lines are:

Motorsport:
R40 available in 18" with 17" coming soon
R50 is in the works and will be available in 18"

Street:
P40 19-20"
P40S 19-20"
CL40 (centerlock) 19" with 20" coming soon

Luxury:
P40L 21-22"
P50L 22"

Thanks for the insight James. These were the only set available for the C63 that I orderd. Would the +35 offsets in the front look like they are sticking out or would they look fine?

Even Money

The fronts are going to stick out 16 mm more than stock.

Should be fine. I mocked mine up withe the same offset on the front with h&r springs all looked good. 16mm is nothing like 1/2 an inch.

GHAZAN

It'll look great, just going to be close to the fender, but 235 helps. Watch out on bumps, driveways or you'll be rolling your fender for free.

propain

Wow nice! Cant wait to see them on the car!

GHAZAN

are those satin or matte btw?

jsc1234

cant wait to see it on the car!!!
come to cars and coffee irvine saturday . . that place is like 2 mins away

GHAZAN

Project

_AMG_

Thanks for the calculations. As long as they look flush with the fender ill be happy.

Nice!! so I still ahve a chance to put H&R springs without having to worry.

235 in the front it is. I hope my fenders dont get F*ed up.

Me too!! I was at work just wishing I had the tires put on them all ready. Soon....Very soon.

Matte black.

Can I have the address? I know it starts around 6 AM correct?
Im hoping I see some of Vic55's cars there also so I can take pics. I would love to make it out there.

_AMG_

Ok so tonight I did a test fitment of the HRE's and the front fitment is very aggressive like most of you guys said, BUT it looks great!! It looks very close to being flush with the fenders and I think ill be good to go with the 235 tire setup and H&R springs
Might even go with KW V3's.

*HRE confirmed the widths and offsets are specifically for the C63*

jsc1234

u dont have to come at 6 i usually get there around 7-7:15 and i still get a spot inside . .. we should set one up one of these days we could all go

_AMG_

Thanks for the directions. I would probably leave my house around 5:45-6:00 AM so I would be there on time I live like an hour away from CandC.
Ive never been there but it sounds like fun.

What is the drop on this E55?

black-clk500

_AMG_ nice rims, can't wait to see 'em on!
It will compliment your aggressive look nicely.
Happy to see you're leaving your exhaust alone for the time being
congrats

PetroC63

Will do.

...but they shouldn't chip because the bolts are not painted black.


I'll post some pics soon. They come in conical and ball seat type.

_AMG_

Lol Thanks!!
Ya, Im done messing with my exhaust if I were to do anything else to it I would just go with LTH's.

PetroC63

Here is a pic from my Iphone.

These are conical type 1.5" long for wheels like Forgestar's.
