If I remember correctly from previous post of this car, they are 19's. They looks perfect with the right drop. Our cars should have came this way stock. *drool*

For some reason I don't feel they are 19s. Look at the stretch the tire has.

True, but remember the owner might have went stretch tires cuz his car is very low & the offset seems low/aggressive... he didnt want any rubbing... but I could be wrong.

I think Roswell is correct. I remember them being 19" and the offset was less than ideal so they didn't have very wide tires.

To me they look like stock 18s with the centres painted black and the car is just lowered.

^^ Wrong... our 18's look small even with a drop. 18 inch tires have higher sidewalls too.

LOL.. yeah our 18's sucks... sold them cuz they look small & the offset was too conservative. (not a fan of spacers)

my wife bananas! :D
humour me please.

but do our oem wheels come in larger size? I'm talking specifically about this wheel (i know about hte multispoke in 19s). As with OP, I'm playing with the idea of just getting a larger version of our wheel but was wondering if it came staggered, better offset or is it just an aftermarket replica?

Thanks

I don't think so. The picture in the first post is a replica. Might be OK quality... might not be. Replicas, IMO, are for winter wheel status only.

The tire profile makes me think that they are 20s

I guess 20 since they're the CL63 wheels. (Those don't come in 19').

They look like 20's to me but it's hard to decide from his drop.

Guys, I gave you the answer above. They're 20', 200% sure. They're the S63/CL63 wheels. They can't be 19'

Guilty we know it's a 63 wheel brother, but not the actual wheel off the CL or S. It's a replica wheel that is on that car. You see, the actual CL or S wheel would stick out like crazy due to its offset (even maching the back plate wouldn't be an option on the actual wheel-way too much to cut). The ask / question is what replica is it and from where so I can locate it and buy it

Here's the OEM wheel 18'



Look how great that plus size version looks



20-19? I'm leaning more towards the 20. Man where can I get those reps in 20.

Any of you guys that have dropped with spring or coil overs tried KMac bushing in the rear end to have adjustable camber?

I was gonna go that route but I heard they flex under really heavy load ( IE our cars)

Flex due to the weight of the vehicle or the g-forces placed on them?
